looks dope, good luck with those true duals its not the easiest job routing that trust me i did it. Way i did it was just get an S bend that mounts to the collectors on ur long tubes and route some offset inlet center outlet mufflers on the end of those with some turn downs. Ground clearance is like 3" which isnt the best in the world but guess its not the worst either. By the looks of it you plan on having it not go over the axle. Also curious on why you chose a solid cam. Do you like ticking as much as i do

the b&m restricts fluid to vital parts and burns up the trans, all the trans techs I've talked to now refuse to install a b&m

for now its gonna be the stock tpi, until i have the money to do this dart setup http://store.summitracing.com/defaul...=egnsearch.asp

ive got an open rear end so when i get posi (SOON!) ill upgrade to 373's

im not sure of the compression ratio at the moment but i am thinking of getting a set of thinner gaskets to raise it to around 10:1. im not sure if the new valve springs are going to fit so if i have to do a little machining ill probable do a little head work at the same time. ill keep you posted.

oh and by the way, i do like the ticking of the solid lifter cam
