I'd be more inclined to change all the fluids, trans - differentials - P/S - antifreeze so you'll know everything is up to par.

I think he said 5", lots of folks cut up & throw away a perfectly good exhaust when all that is really needed is to get rid of the 2 ton stock muffler.

I'm one of the ones that cut up the exhaust to put the Banks 4" that came with a kit that bought before I knew what I know now....live & learn

I'm not knocking you at all, just trying to help tico not make some of the same mistakes I made.

I would not too much stock in the stock gauge
