Re: The Dakota Cadillac (68 K20 w/ Cummins)
I haven't had any problems, but my front end is very stiff and doesn't like to flex too much. I'll see how it works out but I'm more worried about rust from wheel spray than smashing the pipe with the tire. Also, the pipe is very close to the firewall plate and heater hoses from Vintage Air, so I used exhaust wrap for the downpipe within the engine bay.
It might be changing eventually as I want to run an exhaust brake and there is no room behind the turbo for my spare PacBrake. The turbo needs to move forward and I'm thinking up, possibly an industrial manifold flipped? We'll see what happens but that is down the road.
