Yea a flat bed is in the future, just trying to get the in cab roll bar done and a D60 front axle swap completed. And rino line in the interior and take the doors off and make tube ones, and put a set of hand throttle/brake controls on it.

You know how it is, and start my girlfriends rock buggie, a 79 F250 4x4 frame with a sportsman class race car tube chassis, and 460 Auto.

20 yrs and 29 days as a 67T, Blackhawk Crewchief/Doorgunner retired 06 outa Ft Rucker as the Army's Master Door Gunner.

I am about to finish my second year long tour over here as a Crewchief/Doorgunner on a Russian Mi-17. Contractor pay and ZERO Army BS, well almost 0.

24th Inf, 3rd Armor/Desert Storm, 1st AD, 4th Id/Somalia, 2ID, 101st OIF 03, and a TON of respect to any and all 13B's.

Not so quick, sorry to hijack the thread, finish blowing my own horn. Honk Honk

Why would somebody spend the money to get new glasspacks and then screw them up? That don't seem to make since. I guess Ill have the exhaust exit in front of rear tires should still be plenty loud I think.

Ok sorry, I guess I should have clarified it better. I want it to be loud but not destroy new parts to do it. Whats a better(or louder) glasspack than a cherry bomb?

The shorter the glasspack the louder, louvered core glasspacks will be quieter (with the louvers opening facing engine) louvers openings facing towards the rear will be slightly louder, a perforated core glasspack will be loudest (almost like running straight pipe).
