Damn. lol

I dunno if my exhaust guy has a mandrel bender though, but I'll find that out when it comes time to do exhaust on the 76.

How much did that run you?

It was all done for my Grand Cherokee with a 5.9 in it. I bought the flowmaster y pipe, 3" magnaflow cat, 3" ****** muffler, and 3" tail pipe. I had the shop bend up the pipes and install everything. I think they charged me about $250 said and done which i thought was very reasonable. Total investment was in the $600 range. Performance difference was HUGE, best money ever spent on a single mod. I have headers for it also which will go on the new engine. Doug Thorley ceramic headers. $750 for the headers alone. Wish they could be found as cheap as ram headers but not so much lol

Hmm...too bad I've already replaced my cat otherwise that's very tempting.

i'll be using thrush glasspacks which are completly straight through, unlike cherrybombs which have little louvers in them.

i want them, because i want the flowmaster sound (that muffler is a 40 knockoff) but i want it quite a bit quieter since i'm moving to Illinois in 1-1/2 months and they are very strict on exhaust systems.

Have you completed this yet? If so, can you post a video of how it sounds with the glasspacks on it?

Well, I finally pulled the trigger and ordered this cat-back with the Full Boar muffler. When I get it on I will post some pics and put up a sound clip.
