70-DropTop 12 Report post Posted May 24, 2013 How is the x-pipe/crossover going to work with the convertible plate that goes between the seat pan reinforcement and the driveshaft? Can you post pics of the exhaust installed? In general, very awesome work! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pakrat 1,043 Report post Posted May 24, 2013 Is that the 2 1/2" system? If so I have the same one but only did a rough mock up so far and though they claim some modifications are necessary on a convertible I didn't see any major concerns. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

69convertible 10 Report post Posted May 26, 2013 Cheers you guys , glad you like what i am doing, To answer a few questions , The seat pan brace is the one thing that need modifying , I will fab a new one with extra bends to clear the exhaust x pipe . I did try it through the seat pan brace hole , but was hard up on the e-brake cable and hard up on the floor pan just before the rear boxes .Going under the brace was to low , So with the brace out, the system run where the brace was . Yes 2.5 " system The time these jobs take is a labour of love , The magnaflow system has been on & off 4 times to get it right , But i am there now , all fitted & welded . Even though its a bought system you have to fab headers to system joints, drill new s/s hangers for rear boxes , weld rear hangers to system , Then i have welded 3" slash cut s/s tips on , Did not like the turn down magnaflow ones . First start up this weekend !!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably the same 15816 that we did a group buy on years back? Agreed, love the sound Kevin, makes me want to get mine hooked up this weekend. I think I'll still wait to see how you handle the seat brace though. :rolleyes: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
