i made one when i was going to school. it is not that hard. just time consuming. i think the side walls on the muffler were 1/4" thick. we named it the gehto flow and put it on a 4 cylinder gm engine.

Sweet. Git r done!
You're right about the HD. I have the Dodge Cummins NV4500HD manual transmission and the 241DLD Dodge Cummins Transfer Case. Swapped the input shaft and bell to match the gasser, and had a different yoke welded on to my driveshaft to match the Dodge Cummins yoke. So now when I want a u-joint for right by the transfer case I have to tell them it is a 1996 Dodge Cummins I want that ujoint for

My owners manual states ONLY dex merc. One of my friends put GL5 in his, it literally blew apart. So I wont try anything but Dex Merc. That's also what the reman place told me to put in.

lol

I'm trying to find exhaust videos....I'm really thinking glasspack. When I eventually do the exhaust it's going to have the collectors fixed and the pipes are gonna be cut off just before or after the axle, and then run out the back.

buncha snooty tight *** greenies. I was tempted to blip the throttle and give her a cloud to complain about, but I didn't want to get the other lady that was still sitting on the bench in the bus stop.
Just the other day I was driving down US58 towards Galax, saw a Ford Diesel coming up the other direction, 2 exhaust stacks in the bed, blowing a thick cloud of black smoke while passing a car, I could see the **** eating grin on that guys face....

I stopped and looked at a 2003 2500 ctd 2wd today. It was nice and clean with only 115k on it and one owner. It had all of its service done and documented at tbe local dodge dealer, a nd a fifth wheel hitch. But they want more than im willing to spend right now 15k.

For what some Cummins owners want on a private sell 15k doesn't seem so bad.....
