Re: Project "Redemption" 68 SWB Fleetside

Hey Keith, have you figured out what you're going to do for the fuel line connection at the fuel rail? I'm not sure what I want to do yet and I'm looking for ideas.

Duane, I haven't gotten that far yet with the fuel system. I still have to install the fuel rails and injectors on the motor and run the fuel lines from the tank Sorry I couldn't help more.

No worries Keith. I'm in about the same spot. Just trying to plan ahead for when I do get there.

Re: Project "Redemption" 68 SWB Fleetside

Got some work done on the exhaust yesterday. I ended up sending the Black Widow mufflers back because I couldn't get them to fit and work the way I wanted to! Just not enough room with the rear Dropmember for what I want to do with the exhaust! I decided to go with some Borla S-Type mufflers. I ended up mounting them under the cab cause that's really the only place I had room to mount the mufflers and be able to run the side exhaust! Might be a little hot on the floorboards but some heat insulation should take care of that

Re: Project "Redemption" 68 SWB Fleetside

Then I ran the pipes out and over the frame between the two bed crossmembers! I'll finish off the rest when I mock the bed up and figure out where I want the tips to be! Still need to add some hangers to it as well.

Thanks, not quite sure yet on the tips, I know I don't have much room when aired out once I get the bed mocked up I'll get it figured out.

LOUD I had the Borla S-type system on my 13 GMC and it sounded amazing with just a stock 5.3! Once I realized I only had room for some really small mufflers it was a no brainer to go with them!

Keith thanks for the links, I had no idea Summit had exhaust kits. Might have to look into them soon! Oh and your exhaust is looking good!

Looking good Keith! After following your last project dealing with the aftermarket sheet metal, I don't think the rust is going to slow you down at all!
