Thanx guys. I have to build the exhaust system next. I can't wait to hear how the 3" duals sound.

The 3 inch exhaust surprised me. It is very low and pretty quite at an idle like I expected, but it is quite raspy when you rap the throttle. Kind of sounds like the new Vettes. Check it out:

It is an amalgamation of components. Doug's Headers, Pypes X-pipe, Dynomax Super Turbo mufflers and T/A Performance tail pipes. All of the part numbers are in my build thread parts list - 3rd post.

In your honor, I broke out the zip ties and connected my water bottle to the core support. Oddly enough, shortly after that these mysterious marks appeared in the parking lot.

I accept the honor. I knew you could'nt do it without using any of the hotrodder's basic tools. Great job man....that car should stand out anywhere you take it. Ron

WOW really a great build and clean as a whisle. Sounds DYNOMITE. Haven't been on the carbed site for awhile. Tired to go on the truck site, but those guys just couldn't accept that I put a stroked 6.0 ina 2006 GMC SIERRA and put a PRO SYSTEMS carb on it. It sounds like yours. Again really SWEET and sounds great. Have you run it yet? Mine is stroked to 410 and now I don't have enough cam or stall. Keep up the great job.

Not at the track. I will need some sticky rubber first as it will overwhelm the BFGs at near highways speeds.
