I swear I'm a much better mechanic than this. I've got an excellent running 89 Cadillac to prove it. Lol. Thanks for the help guys, I really appreciate it.......
DOH! Glad to hear you got it back to normal

Thanks for cking back in and letting us know.
One thing I hate is trying to help people and never hearing the solution.
I had to man up just 2 weeks ago on StevesNovaSite.

SAME situation you just had with plug wires during cam break-in

I typically do. That's how I used to do things back on this old Cadillac board I used to frequent.....

5 and 7 is a very easy pair to mix up.
The mufflers I can't help...

Re: 84 K10 Hates its New Exhaust: Help!

Yeah, started it up and it runs perfectly fine now. The mufflers I gotta say in my own defense don't have any arrows on them indicating the flow. The only thing I'm going by is the fact that Summit Racing's product description describes the inlet as offset and the outlet as centered.

Pretty sure turbos can be installed either way.

I crossed 2-4 after a header swap.
Was embarrassed on the drive to muffler shop.

LOL! Yeah I know the feeling. I swear I checked it twice before but I guess I got hung up on that spot where they're all cinched together and must've thought I was following the same wire. Oh well, I'm just glad it wasn't something serious. Now I just need to flip the mufflers and I'll be all set......
