Exhausting Stuff

You guessed it. I have finally fitted the exhaust. Listen to it here

The driver side goes up between the gbox and break booster, over the x-member and down again to a joiner. There are also 3, yes 3 heat sheilds, 1 for he g-box wiring, 1 for the booster, 1 for the master. The joins will allow me to remove the front section for some heat treating after x-mas.

The passenger side is similar but doesnt have to clear anything so was way easier.

Both sides are 3" and have a h-pipe join before a pair of 3" Flowmaster delta 55's.

On the output side of things it is a simple 3" down turn just inside the rear guard atm but I plan to go out through the guard shortly.

Re: 1958 SWB C4 Fleetside - NZ Build

Oh .... and I am test fitting some mags over the weekend. If they fit I will be getting them asap.

USMag Hustlers - 20x9.5 (3" lip) and 22x11 (4" Lip)

Think they will look sweeeeeet even though I am not a fan of the staggered look. But the rear tyre has to have some meat to it and I will quite possibly be the only set in that size and stud as we need to order them in special.

Re: 1958 SWB C4 Fleetside - NZ Build

Omg. They fit..... just.

With new pads fitted the backface of the mag clears the Corvette caliper lettering by 1mm (max 2mm) and I have 7.5 turns on the bolts. Full lock clears everything front and back

I think ild run a 5mm spacer to be safe and I will need a centric ring also for our certification process here in NZ but all of that will depend on if I can get a 5mm longer C5 Corvette wheel stud, if not, I'm shagged

That 3" front dish is amazing to look at....
