Stacks... Round II... YAY

Well me and TNT went in and ripped it all out.. I ended up busting the brackets (we had to rig them as Grand Rock forgot to send me specific parts).. Here's the original first setup..



Notice the 5" Saddle Clamp and the rigged L-Bracket with nut spacers.. Yeah that lasted a few days and it sheared off..



See how EXTREMELY high they are.. I didn't like that..

SO... here is the new photos of the fix









In the reflection you can see how we did it this time.. MUCH stronger! The stacks are all the way against the front of the bed.. No more gap



The pipes are all the way on the bed..





Much better height!


And last.. Heres a video of them after we got it all setup

Thanks.. I've noticed a reduction in EGT too..

Old setup was a 4" Straight System with 6" Tip.. UltraComp at 70mph Cruise Control, EGT was 900* F Pre-Turbo.. Now with the stacks it's 650-750* F..
