    I like the look of your stacks. In your picture,are the rags hiding your cab mounts? If so,great. If not ,you might want to incorperate something to brace them at that height as they will vibrate and sooner or later crack. I would also suggest you raise the turnouts almost a foot to get them up into the wind. That's for two reasons, it gets the racket further from your ears,and secondly,greatly reduces the chances of exhaust reversion back into the cab at low speeds. Hank

    Hank Those rags are just there so I don't scratch up my paint. The stacks are not mounted just set up for picture taking. Your right on the height as I will probably raise them 12"

    If you wash the rags in Boraxo they won't ignite as easily.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Bob, that's the whole idea. I just insured my truck for $1,000,000 and just one spark and I can buy a whole fleet of street rods.
