But when you put too much she wont idle good and if you have the auto choke the idle will be bout 300 revs hire, but a hell of a lot of smoke.!! 500,000 miles on 1 motor, you would think it wouldnt hurt it. <<<<< WAIT YOUR TALKING BOUT EXAUST NOT SMOKE RIGHT! ***** typed all that for nothing. I wouldnt run 2.5 on a 6 unless their a single. But i have an 8 so i dont know that. It should work, as soon as i do it ill post a vid and pics!

If you want stacks for your truck do it. Don't worry if someone else doesn't like it. Thats why there are so many diffrent ways to make modifications and make it your own. If you are worried about loseing back pressure= low end torque, and still want it loud, Consider going with out a muffler, only the cats for quieting, run a 2.25" pipe up inside a set of 4" or 5" stacks. Cut the smaller pipes a bit shorter to hide them and use the bigger pipe for looks. If it is too loud you can always add the mufflers later. Just a thought.

Don't worry about what others think you want stacks go with stacks there cool. And if someone starts on you just inform them that through the 40's 50's and early 60's lots of big trucks had gasser's and stacks. And fo a stack recomendation I go with grand rock aussies on my truck which is a diesel but stacks are cool on anything none the less. (well maybe not on as escort)
