And ended up welding a stud



But finally got the rennline pedals and floor board in





The passenger side was much easier



Then started on the exhaust by cutting off the muffler pipes



And tacked on some 2.5" stainless pipes to be more of a straight shot off the cats and added v-band connections







Then mocked up the center exit section







Super long tips







Underside





And cut the tips down

Now I just need to finish weld everything and mount the rear bumper for good
do you have any info on the pipes size and lenghts you used to make the center exhaust? im going with a center exit soon but there no way im paying over 1k for just this 2 pipes...looks like 2 90 degrees and 2 45 degrees 2.5 inch pipes...also where did u buy from?

Not yet, I ran out of time and wanted to wait until after the track day to get into it again. Hopefully soon.

I've seen the Grand Canyon, The Empire State, Mt. Everest and the Taj Mahal - now I am impressed.

Wow! What a build Clay and what awesome talent and skills. A beautiful resurrection.

I feel very fortunate to have been able to binge this whole thread in one sitting. Not sure how I missed it until now...but that was a hell of a ride. Thanks for all the posts and updates.
