I got home just a while ago and i've been thinkin for a few weeks about exhaust. So I look in the Summit Mag one more time, and i ordered me up Flowmaster Force II system, 3" duals! 240.95 wit shippin, i am sooo happy! I can't wait!

6 cyl.? duals?

 

yes it is a proven fact that the I-6 runs better with dual exhaust . but the way to do it correctly is with a header set . (6 into 2).

 

You got a problem with my 4.9 6 banger?! Just kiddin

 

Thats gonna sound great.

 

Thank you inski

 

Hey Jay, I noticed in your sign you have a after market 5spd..what kind and how is it?
Let us know how your exhaust sounds!!

 

Sorry for the mistake, it is original 5 spd, the aftermarket has the : things to show that after it is the aftermarket, sorry for the confusion

 

oh no problem

 

On my 5 spd, like half the time when i go to put it in either 1st or Revvis, i literaly have to shove it, anyone can help me?

 

we have a 90' F250 at work . manual 4 sp. ya literally gotta jam it into reverse.

 

Hey Jay...I had that problem with 1st but I don't think revis...but I just bled the tranny and it was fine after that.Hopefully your slave isn't stuck.

 

I might put a new slave in, we did on my dad's 1 ton dually, shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit. we took it out three times, heavy *** tranny with the 4X4 thing hooked to it.

 

u mean the transfer case? yea those are some heavy suckers...

 

I'm curious to hear how this works out for you. I installed an Edelbrock cat back kit that has dual 2.5" pipes from the muffler back. I didn't notice any gain or loss of off-line power, but it did improve the top end. I would be concerned that 3" pipes might be too much. You may lose some bottom end torque and responsiveness. The real test would be when towing. Keep us posted.

Ray-
I don't know what year they started using them, but my 4.9L has a killer factory exhaust right up until the cat. It has two tri-y header pipes that meet just before the cat (rather than a 6 into 1). I would fear losing too much back pressure with a true dual exhaust in the 4.9L. Maybe if the pipes were 2" or 2.25". It would take some testing. With the factory dual tri-y's, though, it is possible. Hmmmmmmmm.

Take care,
