Stacks FINALLY installed.
Well a buddy of mine gave me his 5" turn out stacks. They weren't one his truck a year and i traded him for it. I had them for about a month and finally went out and bought the 5" pipe and elbows. Ended up making a T since the price was outrages for just the T. So for the pipe that went vertical into the bed, we took the 5" pipe cut two 45 degree angles in it. The we just traced it onto a fresh piece of 5" pipe, cut it out then welded it together, then welded the elbows on. It worked out well and it all it cost was the price of the 5" pipe. I dont notice an EGT increase at all compared to the 5" side pipe. I will post pictures tommorrow since i just got done with them.
