Hey y'all I just graduated army basic training, I am starting to make a list (and pile) of parts I'm going to put on my white 96 5.0 2wd 150. It is already leveled out using rough country coils.

This is what I have so far
Exterior
-headlights, smoked. (Ordered)
-billet grille (ordered)
-push bar, maybe
-window tint
-new wheels, maybe MT classic lls
Performance
-headers, long tubes (ordered)
-4:10 gears
-locker
-hi flow mufflers, maybe cherry bomb vortex or the like

If anyone has any other ideas send them my way

Oh yea I also go procomp 9 inch lights on the way

 

Flowmasters sound better than cherry bomb in my opinion. I Put cherry bomb pro's on my old eldorado, never was happy with the sound, they rusted and fell off after two winters, put on flowmaster 40's and got compliments all the time. After three winters they showed no signs of rusting out. Just got done putting a 40 series on my 92 351w f150 and I like the sound. Just my opinion. Everything else sounds good so far. And talking about the eldo has me sad now. Had a kid and she had to go for a new escape. Not an even trade but oh well.

 

If it isn't already, level the truck. Easiest way is to use 2wd f250 springs.

 

How loud are the flows? I am going to go from the headers to an x pipe no cats. I want it to be pretty loud but not annoying

And I have it leveled now using RC leveling coils

 

As it is now, except with a full size tool box

 

Thanks for your service and good luck with your enlistment.

 

I appreciate it man, I'm in AIT for 5 months so I'm going to have a lot of things to do when I get back

 

Flowmaster original 40 series is what I have now on my 351, with a cat, basically stock setup and it is not too loud or annoying. Has a good deep drone at highway speed and a good low thump at idle. I would say with your setup to go with the 40 series delta flow. Those will tone it down a bit. I think you will be happy.

 

Thanks I will look into them

Does anyone know of someone who makes sliders for our trucks or will I need to fab some?
I am going for a prerunner look

 

Thank you for your service, nice lookin truck
