    Exhaust

    For side exhaust, how far below the frame should the side pipe be set?
    Thanks

    I'm looking at that myself. I have a set of C2 Corvette side pipe headers from my 66 I'm going to see if I can modify to fit. Not sure with all the frame bracing. Truck coming tomorrow so can finally take some measurements and see if it will work. Let me know if you figure anything out! I'll post pics if I get to work out.

    My question was not clear. The truck will have full fenders and running boards. I will be installing the side exit exhaust. I am wondering about how much clearance I should leave between the frame and the exhaust pipe.
    Thanks

    I investigated this and found I had almost no ground clearance.
    Will be watching what you come up with.

    You could always run in right along the frame rail - then create a really shallow cut that is parallel to the ground. It would be hidden then and no ground clearance issues.
