    No internet connection besides my cell phone right now so still no pictures. But I will try tomorrow. I got it all fitted up today and tacked together. I am going to weld everything tomorrow and see how my clearance and everything is. I will try to post a video if I get done tomorrow

            ok so i got everything done. but before i had started my build it was misfiring and i didn't think much of it bc it was really wet out and the plugs get a little wet sometimes. i took it for a test (was scraping one muffler real bad lol) and it was doin it still, so i drove about a mile and it got better and didnt do it. rasised the mufflers, test drove, no misfiring. took it into town, misfired the whole way. esp when i stepped on it, wasnt too bad just cruisin. Then, im over at someones house for a few hours, go outside, and it wont start. It did this to me before and i think it was some security BS, but i dont see the light flashing so IDK. and when i say it won't start i mean it dont turn over or anything. Tried jumping it, nothing. so i unhooked the battery and i'm gonna try it today. I'll get my pictures and stuff when i get everything figured out. I got college and high school everyday though so this really sucks. But i dont think its related to teh exhaust...idk

              I didnt really need to bend anything honestly. There was enough wiggle rooms to weld at slight angles so that worked great.

                  ^i wanna mimic your set up when i get my bird done. i love the way it sounds. the pace setters will make a slight difference in sound over the LT's right?

                        hmm. your ignition control module could be FIZ-ucked.
                        could in fact be your battery.

                          Not the battery. Havin it looked at tomorrow. I guess we,ll see. Idk how the ICM could just go out completely all of a sudde,. And I looked at it and the misfire was bc of a plug wire melted to my headers

                            make sure the connection on the battery is good,the part that screws into the battery were messed up on mine and it kept doing the same thing
