Son you will not be disappoint.

What size pipes do you have, er, are going with?

The cat back is 3" and the muffler is 3" in and out. It has long tubes and 3" y-pipe. The Flowmaster muffler is a 70 series. It's the only reasonably priced system for my truck. I searched Jeggs and Summit by make model and engine...The Banks system was 3x as much. My Corvette needs tires soon so I went with it to save a few $

That's going to sound sick. Let me know how you like the 70 Series, I might be switching out my 40 Series for that or a MagnaFlow here soon. My truck is getting a little obnoxious to me now, granted, it's no 460, but it's got a hell of a steep cam on it.

It's on. Quieter than the Banks and that's fine. Flowmaster has this stuff figured out, it fit PERFECT. No hassles and no headaches..except taking the rusty Banks stuff off. Nothing the air chisel couldn't handle though.

so.. 3/4 bolts holding the drivers side radius arm to the frame that are all loose, 2/4 bolts holding the passenger side that are loose also. having to completely detach the axle from the brackets and they STILL wont line up to put bolts in.... finding out my passenger caliper was missing a slide pin. had to remove the driveshaft from the yolk to drop the axle and needle bearings going everywhere. and i still havent gotten those bolts in yet.

all cause i took my fender off to make a snorkel... which still aint done either...
