Magnapacks came in.

FAIL
broke my hand when the ratchet slipped.

It's ok for driving, but it's all swollen and hard to get any real grip.
I think that particular part of my hand is getting weaker, 3rd time I've broken in. Still haven't seen a doc, mil or civ. I just take it easy for a few weeks..

Have an appointment monday for install $105.
Guess it's a sign to take a break and go back to my playstation.

But thanks.

Good choice on the magnapacks! I may be a little biased but I love their sound!

 

[96blak54]

Go to the dr!

Ouch! That must hurt like a son of a gun! Sorry LEO...

Hmmm I didn't get any ISO's with my kit??? Maybe I got ripped off so I just reused my old stock Ford ones, they were in pretty good shape.

UPDATE:

I'm a tad mixed on my feelings of this setup.

I was very worried about being too loud.
Well even with an O/R midpipe, it's not very much louder than with the stock catback....unless I get on it.
So a little disappointed as most places I read they were louder than LMII.

I wonder if they get louder over time.

On the flip side...
It sounds like pure sex.
I drive in second to keep in the 2000-2500 range and it burbles and sounds amazing.
On the back road I opened it up and it was amazing.

Probably the quietest V8 setup I've ever done, but even though I wish it had a tad more presence, the way it sounds makes me more than happy about the 600 and 60 for install.

So overall, I think it sounds beautiful. And it not being louder around town is actually fine, because it does sound so good.
First sunny day I'll try and get a vid up.

well hopefully my setup will net ,e results like yours.
not too low, about what I call perfect

 

[96blak54]

Pipe size? 2 1/4, 2 1/2?

 

[Leo 5.0]

Oh.
2.5 all the way from the headers now.
With the 3.5 tips.

 

[5-oh-MUSTANG]

How long was the actual magnapack? 18"? The longer they are the quieter they get.

 

[Leo 5.0]

I'd have to measure.
They are fairly long.
The tips are all fitted right, but stick out about 4 inches.

lol

Had to weld the tips cause the clamps didn't hold and one nearly fell off.
He did it free though, he says he stands by his work and since the clamps came loose, his work wasn't finished.
Done in less than 6 mins.
Good guy.
And an old ford tech...so anything out of my hands, he'll do.
We are sitting down monday to discuss my build.

I agree with the above statement. They may have a shorter muffler for your setup and that would of made a difference. Or you can put some more HP in the engine bay and that will also make a difference. Either way, good luck with it.

 

[96blak54]

I like the way this guy thinks, but im going on a stretch here and add ....possibly more cu.in. will liven the pipes up a bit!....lol

 

[evilcw311]
