I see a lot of trucks with stacks around my area and I have always wondered what happens to the water that goes down the stacks when it's raining? It rains HARD and FAST here in Texas and those guys have to be getting water down those stacks. So, what happens?

I drilled a 1/8 of an inch hole at the lowest point in my exhaust and it works just fine for draining. What ever residue is left gets blown out. There is only one down side to having stacks after it rains, you will blow wet/soot on the back side of your mule.

As far as the question of performance: stacks make it look fast!
As far as the question of looks: your darn right it looks good.

To me there is nothing around that sounds better than a straight piped truck with stacks, its unbelievable!

Question

Thanks for the responce Rampage, this was one of my questions. Maybe choosing the right style stacks might help--like set of bull haulers or turn outs? The straight-cut or mitre-cut might present a problem. Which style do you have? Thanks Phat!

Hey Rampage I just answered my own question. I checked out your gallery I saw you have turn-outs. You have very nice looking truck, I like the turn-out style pipes. Do you get more whistle than having it routed under the truck? Thanks Phat!
