I appreciate and respect each of your comments and thoughts and you all bring great points up and that is why I posted the question, sometimes you need someone else to look at it, give you their thoughts and then make a final thought. So again, Thank you.
"All the way to the bumper" exhaust minimizes dust/dirt under the truck vs. dumped @ the rear housing. Anything w/a decent cam & cylinder pressure will create quite the dust storm where the road surface allows when the exhaust is dumped under the bed.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
