Once those are bolted together you are off to the races, get a couple mandril bends to weld into the pipes going over the axle and it'll be 'magazine' ready.

    I just went back thru and still don't see headers bolted to the X pipe. Am I missing something?

    ojh: You don't see headers because I'm not using headers. I'm using stock exhaust manifolds. Go back and look at pages 14 & 15 where this all started to see the pic's. Thanks for your interest.

    Just a few pic's of the exhaust, making hangers and need a little bend in the tail pipe's and the exhaust should be done.
