    Well, here it is. An 8.5min video recap of the whole project with a half dozen or more photos at the end of the final product.

    Still a few loose ends to tie up but have put almost 400 miles on it since Friday before last.

    I was planning to keep my clothes on. But certain booze in high quantities could cause me to run naked through the camp fire.

    An amazing job. Have enjoyed watching all along. Hats off to you & all the skills you have shown. One question though (sorry) but why the stock pipes ? Not having a go, just seems to be such a popular mod that most do.

    Just the money. Was able to get the stock pipe for the price of shipping and I still had a budget in the project I was trying to hold.

    I've been watching this thread since I started lurking here last December. Gotta tell ya Tink, I am impressed with the imagination, skill and attention to detail you show with your projects. Sometimes I'd go back to page one of this thread just to look at that pile o' parts you brought home in the truck - and then just shake my head when looking at your progress. Makes my project seem pretty puny by comparison - but at the same time it motivates me to get out to the garage and get to wrenchin'!
