The driveshaft loop should be pretty easy. Maybe I will make 2 of them and send you one

Right now I'm trying to figure out how to fit a downpipe and a crossover in a cramped area. I may have to get creative.

Looking good, I know exactly how hard it is to get a down pipe in these buggers. In mine I wanted to retain the rear cross over so my down pipe goes out the hood lol.

If you had forward facing tube headers you could fit a 3" down pipe between frame and engine all the way back. Then put your crossover under your accessories

I thought of that also, but sort of have another idea that may work. Think I may clearance the floor a bit to buy a few more inches.

I'm glad I did a rear mount on my s10. I don't have your fab skills to make all of that **** fit. All I had to worry about was yhe charge pipe.

Please tell me how you ran your charge pipe! I'm doing a rear mount and I'm just about to damn near cut up some of the floor on the passenger side dash area.

The one thing I'm learning fast about these things, is that you need to think outside of normal. I have a few different ideas......

I am running my crossover under the accessories in front of the sway bar and up. Then run the down pipe between the cab and engine. I am gonna notch the floor pan/firewall for the down pipe so I can get some comfortable room.
