Question Exhaust ?

Ok I need all of your help on this I have a 1979 F150 4x4 Step Side and I am getting ready to do the exhaust from the headers.... now I wanted to put stacks on it but some people say it would look dumb, some say it would look great so I am asking you for your help to decide...... Should I stay with stock dual's or do you thank it would be ok to put stack's on it???? I know it would not be original but I am not worried about that.... any help on this would be great......

It's your truck, and all the others are not paying for the exhaust, right? Do what you want to do, not what others think looks good.

Stacks work better with flamethrowers. Keep that in mind when you go for 'em.

You're gonna put the flapper thingy's on 'em to keep the rain out, right? Seriously, it's your truck, don't worry what other people think.

Like others have said it's your truck, but i say stacks would look dumb. I would go with duals and flowmasters, and maybe some cutouts before the mufler so you could be loud when you want.

i say stacks. i dont really like them on a styleside but they look mean on a flare side. unless its a diesel then they go on anything but you have to have the flappers it aint stacks with out em . or you could always put 8 2" pipes straight out the hood with little flappers on all of them too .
