smoke stacks
Sure ....mostly im Diesel Powerstroke Superduties I installed 4 of them last year. Not on mine but on friends Its pretty simple we would get cut off the muffler run a Y pipe use 2.5 ft. of pipe off of each end of the Y pipe then cut to holes in the bed right behind the cab on each far end of the bed run flex pipe ( 3.5 inch ) to the 4" Exhaust stacks I have had good luck with the turnouts or even the straight cut stacks. Mostly used 2 60" stacks on each vehicle one called for 2 48" stacks . Either which way it is awesome they sound like a tractor trailer even when down shifting.

When my 91 4x4 flatbed was a dsl I had 2-4"x48" chrome stacks coming up behind the headache rack. I used 2.5" hooker max flows with true duals (no turbo) and it sounded excellent and all my friends thought it was cool as h$ll especially when I throttled it and that black smoke poured out
.
Now it is a gas motor and will be getting a different exhuast, Mainly becuase of the low clearence both under the truck and on top becuase of the stack system.
I think dsl trucks with stacks are cool I really like the sound of the PS with no mufflers

There are stacks on the 72 with a 390 I just bought. Pipes from the headers into dual 2 1/4 inch pipes (no crossover), into dual 28 inch glasspacks, turned up through the bed going into 3" stacks. The truck sounds awesome. It is louder than my 7.3 non turbo with nothing but 3 feet of pipe from the collector. If you don't mind cutting holes in your trucks bed I'd say go for it. I know I'm keeping mine.

i've got a 460 with dual exhaust running to 2 4ft. 5" stacks with short blue bottles......it sounds just wicked. I get a lot of calls from the old folks home across from my house becuase it's far too loud. I just tell'em to turn down their hearing aids.....

Wonder how running stacks outside the bed, on the side of the truck would look. With the mufflers on the side with nice chrome muffler guards 
Is there and legal restriction to doing something like that? Just gotta be careful to not touch the hot pipes.

i just saw that the other day on a new f350 diesel. it had the reading utility bed like this http://www.readingbody.com/enclosed_bodies.html. then the stacks were mounted right in front of the utility bed, which was wider than the cab. It looked very nice.
