You could clean the shop though. That always gets me turned around.

Broom, dust pan, some lemon fresh Pledge......clean time done......... Put a wrench in my hand!
My greatest mentor was a machinist / instructor in college (Industrial Fluid Power). Dude ran a tight ship, clean shop and just plain didn't do $hit stupid. He called fart when he smelled fart. Shout out to Ed Willey, you made a dent man. If I had my way, you could serve over-easy eggs under my bench vise. Score an inline yet? I'm tellin' you dude, get one.

Thanks for looking over here man! I've got no first-hand experience but I did look at about a jillion video clips. I want thist thing to sound good. My plan is to have the muffs just past the trailing arms cross member, under the bed and run tail pipes over the axle and out the sides, behind those 295's. I'm also going to use a balance pipe just past the trans.

*uckin $hit-storm in here lately. With the Boy, it's like a truck fixin' convinience store. Gotta teach him to get some skin when he's sorting out OPP! We swept up and all tools are in check. Cross member is basically there and I got a few sheckles to buy some bent pipe for exhaust. Crummy need some love tho and I ain't got much firewood out there

I prolly think about Boppa's 5.3 just about as much as you do Chip. That's gonna be a sweet ride for him and it's just soooo cool that you did that for your Pa. I'd be proud if I could do the same. My Pa has a '75 Silverado that he uses like a dozer. I have some good pics too. I'd love to whip that thing into shape for him. He'd park the 2014 Subaru, I'm sure.

Thanks for hanging in dudes. I WILL FINISH THIS TRUCK and it's gonna be bit*hin!
