(4 Comments) Flex coupler is well clear of everything and will make mounting of the rest of the system much easier | the modified downpipe exits in a much better position, I'll only need a 90dg bend to turn rear and make the muffler attachment | magnaflow downpipe modified with flex coupler, I cut the bottom bend off of it and reinstalled the flange that was there (to ease welding to the flex coupler) | capped the opening with some scrap 1/8" steel, much better than spending $140 for an LB7 up-pipe | ||
I'm eliminating the egr system completely so instead of buying an LB7 up-pipe I just cut off the upper section that used to go to the egr cooler | had 1/4" rings waterjet cut, larger one tapped for 1/4-20 hardware and welded to the tank, smaller ring retains the piece of the donor tank with the flange down tight | modified the stock fuel tank to accept the donor truck fuel tank pickup | welded the anchor nuts in the frame (both sides ) for the new dedicated radiator supports | ||
finished fabrication on the fan shroud and converted it to a split design so that I can remove it while leaving the radiator in place | modified some the stock intake parts for a better transition piece | New magnaflow 3" turbo downpipe, will probably cut the bottom few inches off this and add a flex coupler so that I can rigid mount the rest of the exhaust | Fuel pickup from the donor modified to the depth (20") of the FMC tank. | ||
