Re: '78 K20 to C10. Almost 20 years in the making.

Nice job on the exhaust system fab! Glad to see you used sections of mandrel bends. I made my own head pipes using mandrel bends when my truck had 96-up cast iron manifolds. The welds weren't quite as nice as yours though.

Ended up doing it again after installing high-tuck headers.



Man, I hate that crossmember, which is high on one side, low on the other. May someday get this one: https://www.ifabspeed.com/product-pa...e-dd9b12240478
