'95 7.5L 3" exhaust pics before/after

I know that I've posted what exhaust I used on my 'slightly enhanced' 7.5L rebuild, and FINALLY got the pics off my old hard drive. Note the Y-pipe routing that went OVER the trans crossmember!!!

I had taken pics so people could see the difference between the stock and 'rowdy' exhaust

The catalyst was re-used (I live in a testing area) with a new straight 3" pipe from catalyst to muffler

Headers are polished 304 Stainless DNA Motoring (no longer available), muffler is a 3" in/out stainless Magnaflow 13742, tailpipe is a single stainless 3" DynoMax 55082 which comes back as fitting a Dodge Dakota(!). Yes, I had to weld on my own rods for hangars in the proper locations. I had used a universal Summit Racing tailpipe on my former '97 7.5L that was closer to proper 'Ford-routing/fitting', but that pipe is no longer available

That's a nice setup & of course sad that it's not available.

Here's a 3" SS mandrel bent tail pipe that's factory style replacement for some 2000s Ford truck that I got from summit for cheap/reasonable.

Doesn't take much modding to utilize the hangers.

Part # seems still valid.

How well does that stock muffler flow?

I cut open junk ones to spy, the one off my 5.4 in the Supercrew flowed like *** and my '01 Z71 That one looks like a straight through like my 7.3DI had stock.

Nice looking setup for sure.
