    finally mounted my thrust muffler it has two exit ports to make it appear that i have duel exhaust out both sides plus like the sound, had to use more muffler clamps than i wanted so may drop it in a few weeks and weld the joints need welding practice anyways, still doing a little more body work but glad the drip rails are done except for applying the seam sealer. still planning on paint in april. also took some photos, tommrow i hope to figure out how to post them.
