Im asking this question for my buddy... he has a 95 f150 reg. cab with the 302 in it. Hes going to replace the stock cat. with some pipes then put a single in single out cat on the I-pipe. Heres the question he has a sawzall and his buddy that lives about a hour away has a welder. He has to go over there anyways for the holiday but his buddy dosent have a way to cut it off. He wants to cut it off then drive over to his buddys but hes afraid it might heat up the transmission sense the 2 pipes that go into it are right by it. I dont see any wires that could melt but would there be any problems if he cut it off then drove a hour to his buddys? i told him it will be loud sense its right underneath the cab. but he said he knows.

 

his buddy has electricity for the welder,right? so he should have electricity for the sawzall. lol. throw the sawzall in the truck and cut the exhaust when he gets there.

 

haha i know right, but for some reason he absolutly has to cut it off at his house... dont ask me why thats why i said its a stuiped exhaust question im not sure his reasoning but i told him i would ask on here sense i couldnt give him a good answer... i guess whatever floats his boat? lol im guessing he would be fine right ?

Edit: i forgot to mention this kid is stubbern as all hell haha

 

anybody have any advice? hes leaving in a few hours and im suppost to help him cut it off sense he wont take my advice and cut it off there...

 

Tell him it only takes five minutes to hack off pipes. It is much smarter to wait to cut it off. I suspect he just wants to hear his truck with no exaust. If this is the case, offer to drive the truck for him once you all get to your destination. He can hear his own truck drive by, rev up, etc.

 

Well, if he just absolutely HAS to cut it off at his house and then drive it over, I suppose it can be done that way. Make damn sure there is no fuel leaks anywhere and hack it off. You will have a loss in back pressure for that trip so I hope he isnt going to pull anything. Other than that, happy thanksgiving and enjoy the trip!!

 

Yeah thats what i think he wants to do but hes stubborn as hell but i told him after about 20 mins its going to get really irratating so he finally agreed with me to wait till we get there lol

 

Smart man, I'm glad you helped him use his head. lol! Irritating isn't the word, man..

When you get there, cut'em off and drive the truck for him. I think he just want to hear it before and after is all.
