I put the exhaust on today. I did the SI and DO design. I put turn downs on it for now. I'll have 2 pipes bent later. For now, just having the exhaust makes all the difference. I can at least hear things now, which makes tuning things much easier. LOL
I drove Red all around today and was extremely happy with the braking system. Remember, I changed the rear differential from a drum 9.75 to a disc brake 9.75 rear end. The braking is excellent. Very clean and responsive, compared to stock drum brakes. I tried a couple panic stops to make sure that all was correct. Flawless. I was sure I'd run into an imbalance, but it worked very well. I'm stoked over that.
I had to return the transmission core and a lot of running today, but I managed to get a bunch done. Tomorrow will be tune up day. I checked the codes today and have a P0174 (so common). No problem. I'll take care of that then also. Otherwise, today was quite nice for working on a vehicle. I picked up the dash piece that was cracked, so I'm golden now on what to finish. Radio, back window, dash piece and tune up left to do. I'm getting there.

It's getting there slowly. I only can do so much each day. My back doesn't allow a lot of extra mobility. I couldn't believe that the exhaust went as well as I thought it would. A slip sleeve, a short extension, muffler and a pair of turn downs. It sits there perfectly. I even used the factory hanger mount. Not too bad.
