I hope they work good because I want it to be worth the $105 I spent lol. If they don't I'm sure the company will be hearing from me

Lol a quick detail would have removed water spots too at $5 a bottle.

I installed this thingy on the top of my 2017 6.2L. Not really sure what it does, but my truck goes really fast now.

When I spend about an hour and a half plus on just the outside, that's the last thing I feel like doing is drying or quick detailing the truck. Plus I don't have sufficient shade to clean in so when it's hot outside the sun dries one side before I can even get to hand dry it

I'm in Alabama, I understand the struggle lol.

I really like the 16 front clips now, they really grew on me, especially yours how you paint matched it with the HC grille. Makes me want to upgrade, but if I upgraded it would have to be to an HD truck

I'm on my 5th muffler.

 

Stock muffler

Magnaflow 18"

Magnaflow 14"

Flowmaster 40

Flowmaster 10

 

Although it's still not loud enough for me, it does sound pretty good.

 

(Turn it up and use headphones)

Either you're joking about the Super 10 not being loud enough, or it really isn't so maybe you should just run open headers lol.

 

Back in high school a buddy had a '65 Chevy with a built 350 and he cranked it up with just open headers. Well it was loud as hell and made my insides vibrate and it was awesome lol. I figure what's the purpose of a V8 if you can't piss certain people off and make people hear you from a few blocks away. I have a Super 44 on mine and it's the perfect sound but wouldn't mind it a little louder. I thought about dumping it right behind the muffler. But, with a tip at 45° behind each rear wheel I figure that spreads the sound better. So pisses people off beside both sides and behind me lol.

Yeah, half-joking..... I do like it loud. I'm thinking about splitting the single passenger side exit into dual 45's behind each wheel like yours. The exit behind the passenger rear wheel is just too far away! Haha!

 

I do like the FlowMaster 10. Sounds very aggressive. :cheers:

I probably would have gotten a Super 10 but either I thought it might not be legal (or didn't want to chance it) or at the time I didn't see them offer it with dual out. Can't remember which. I know if it wasn't offered at dual out at the time I could have had them put a Y to make it dual, but I prefer the muffler to be dual if I'm doing duals.

 

You have no idea how much it killed me the first 3 months when it was factory. Sounded like a Prius and the tip looked ugly. Plus I'm OCD with that stuff and hated it only having the one. When I had it done the gas mileage went down instantly lol.

Flowmaster does make a dual out for the 10, but I think you have to buy the "Outlaw" Cat back, which is around $800.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Progress... sort of.   Intake is disassembled, spider is out, fuel lines removed. Used a torch on the stripped screw with the lower intake off, much easier when I've got the intake sitting on my workbench, I made it talk. Walked right out with a pair of vice grips once it was nice and toasty hot.   New parts are piling up on my service cart waiting to be installed. Distributor, temperature sensor, new gaskets, fuel line kit, themostat, water neck.   My new pickle is I don't want to spend $600 on a replacement spider. I'm not sure IT is bad. I'm probably splitting hairs. Or it's $300 to send mine away and another 3 weeks of the truck just sitting. I have half a mind to assemble everything with the old spider to see if I can get away with just replacing the fuel pressure regulator to be safe. The obvious issue was the gushing high pressure fuel line which will be replaced. Getting to the spider really isn't that hard, and now I know what I'm doing , swapping it would be a breeze should it absolutely need one. Stupid, or smart?   The part that gives me pause is replacing the distributor. Well, it's already out. And I didn't mark it, whoopsie! Engine was at TDC when I removed it, I know that, so upon correct reinstall the metal tip on the rotor should point to the TDC mark on the distributor because that's where it was pointing on the old distributor. Worst case I'm a tooth off and have to re-stab it.   But then, what? I assume the truck will start. It doesn't appear the timing can be set. Here's the problem: These distributors can't be rotated but a degree or two, by design. What I read is Cam ****** needs to be -2 to +2 degrees, ideally at 0 (and checked/set above 1000 rpm). There should be enough wiggle to get that properly set, but checking the reported value is another potential issue. My Actron 9185 scanner says it supports enhanced GM PIDs and Cam ****** is one of them but it's unclear that I'll be able to correctly see it over OBD 1.5. I can see why people end up junking these things with life left in them. They're an absolute nightmare with tweener-year diagnostics/electronics and unobtanium parts.   Fingers crossed it starts and idles nicely. There can be hope, right? I'ma buy a lottery ticket the same day just in case.   Next steps..DO IT. I have not installed an intake before so I've been reading and watching a lot. Some say NO RTV except on china walls, some say DO RTV on water ports but not fuel/air intake. 1/4 or 3/8 bead on China walls? I think my strategy will be, obviously, RTV china walls with overlap on the gasket corners. Chapstick-style RTV the water ports. Leave intake ports dry. The only set of intake gaskets I could find locally are Edelbrock performance gaskets (uh...for an asthmatic 190hp V6? LOL) so we'll see how they do.   #NoToolLeftBehind. It took an hour, but my recovery mission for my deep 10mm socket was successful. It had rolled down the bellhousing and wedged itself between what I think are the fuel lines? I couldn't see it at all, but with a junk antenna I had laying around, I blindly went poking/sweeping for it, heard it clink, raised the truck, and caught a sliver glimpse of chrome with a flashlight way up there in Narnia. I had pushed it farther along the lines holding it captive, but within access of severely improvised tools, poking and cursing at it to finally knock it free to where I could get a fingertip on it to bring it home.    Not much to see.
