Interesting ideas with the exhaust. I'd be curious later on if you deem all the work worth it.

Yeah there is that nasty "Spring settling" thing to contend with. Who knows I may end up an inch lower than yours. That would suck! Especially in CT AKA the pot hole capital of the world. From a cost perspective it is defiantly worth it but it is very time consuming and frustrating (first exhaust) but I think in the end it will be well worth it. It will be "Exactly" like I want it and if it's messed up; I messed it up. It will also be more gratifying being able to say I did it and it's not too bad for my first time. How many people can say they scratch built an entire exhaust system for their hot rod? I mean besides the guy's that put lakester headers, zoomies, or side pipes on their rides. To me that's chickening out...LOL

Since I'm in MA,I like to say we're the pothole capital.. but I'll bet everyone on here thinks they have the most potholes.

I built mine all the way to the tail and it was my first doing the whole thing. So I know your pain!
