$500.00 buys alot of $tainless $teel
I'm gonna turn this old C50 into a pickup truck one day if it kills me......
I just installed a new complete exhaust system 2 weeks ago with new ceramic coated smoothie rams head manifolds down to the new 2.5 inch S.S. Magnaflows. I bought the manifolds from eBay for 250.00, and had the boys at Prospect Muffler here in Fort Lauderdale bend up all the pipes to a drawing that I had made a week before with very detailed measurements. They didn't feel comfortable bending up all that S.S. pipe for a truck that they have never even seen before. They like to work on the rack at their shop, put a pipe up, check it, tweek it if need be, then weld it together. I explained to them that this would not be possible because the truck is being kept 100 miles north of their shop at my brother-in-laws house. I told them, just stick to my drawing measurements and every thing would work out just fine. I did all the welding myself and this is how it turned out........
