    Sounds good. You shoulda got an under hood shot in there with it running,maybe a few revs for the crowd.Looks good too.Did you relocate/replace your gas tank to run the pipes??

    wow, VERY awesome looking love that shine!

    Good question tho, how did you run the pipes? i've been trying to figure out how to run pipes out the back with very few bends, best I can figure to do is shoot it out a few inches before the rear tires.

    Mine exit behind the rear tires,2 and a half inch pipe is a squeeze but it works well.I would put up a pic but its too big a file.

    the only bend in the pipes are to go over the rear axel and back down and out.

    I was figuring I'd have to do the "in front of the back wheel" thing.

    thats what I was thinking too... not sure if its legal here in Virginia though. I can run it out the back, but to many bends

    I was trying to run 2.5 from front, and trying to get it out the back with few bends
    I know it was possible to do, but it had to many bends to get it done.

    I didnt have enough room on the left to run 2.5" to the rear pan on my 72.Not comfortably for my taste anyways.

    Mavaholic did an early mustang tank swap on his car,has a tutorial at his site on how to do it.Its simple and gives you LOTS of room on both sides.
