thats good to know, it will be a while before i get to that point... i just pulled the rest of the body off of the truck and should have it to the body shop this week, i guess while those guys are making it look nice, i will spend the time to finish my frame work and get it all ready to powder coat.

Actually getting the truck running will probably wait until febuary or so... i want to get everything fit and finished before i worry about driving the thing... i will be toooo tempted to just drive it once it runs so i am saving it for last. haha

hey what headers are you gonna use? two bud of mine wenr different routes. one used the stock headers the other bought headers from s&p. s&p are costly and the factory exhaust hits the frame rail. maybe a muffler can work some magic.

i used pacesetter longtubes for a late model truck. the passenger side went right in and i had some minor clearancing of the frame to do on the drivers side.

i am staying with the factory exhaust for now... i am just going to shave off the EGR valve on the passenger side so it clears the frame. it won't be perfect but it will get me by till i am ready to build my motor. i have a friend running a 5.3 in a 95 4x4 chevy and he has Gibson Short tube headders but is looking at some long tubes... not sure why, he just doesn't like the shorties.
