Told you...give it a few fill ups ull get better gas mileage Glad you like it Just dont rev it to much in park... makes lots of poping as im sure you know... But any aftermarket exhuast will do that...

Glad you like it and its nice and cheap Now people know you got a V-8 under the hood

I'll plant one, try to run that thing 100+ (if you have a tuner or the speed limiter is removed) mine seemed to run better, but at about 100 my truck is at 3000 in O/D, let it try and pull then, mine wouldn't. Mine made 249 ft lbs on the dyno with the exhaust chopped off, that is higher than many 4.6's I have seen, esp 97-98, but a good exhaust would have def. helped. Run it up a big mountain, if you can still hear yourself think afterwards, make a decision on the more or less torque.

Been there, done that, got the shirt and sold it to get a real exhaust. My 15 hour trip to Delaware and back really made me rethink my decision to chop it off. Sounded good until the dash rattles and vibrations that shook the whole truck became obvious.
