Ohhhhhh I see. I always consider the O.D. so the muffler will fit over the pipe. By the way that sounds like one sweet ride.

Go with a 3" muffler. It will fit over the stock pipe and weld up just fine.

From what I've read here, they just slow you down right? I'll stick w/ 17's!

Congrats on the new ride man. It never hurts to have a few of the fancy things! What is "custom cloth" ?

Don't know, we'll find out tomorrow about 3:00 our time about the CC seats! I already ordered the muffler I want 2.5" I/O, guess it's to late now! Will the 2.5 fit in the stock inlet pipe or what?

Thanks guys, I believe I'll be really happy with it. As far as mods go, for now I'll just go the bolt on route w/ intake, exhaust, tune(probably Nelson since they are close), LT Tri-y's (if I can find em') and save for the big mod, a 6.0L. I've found a few good sources that seem to have them pretty often, anywhere from short block to complete. It's awful tempting to do a cam swap though, I head a sound clip on here of a white RCSB w/ different cam and it sounded evil. I just don't want to screw myself out of the warranty. We'll see, I have too many projects now. The 94 in my sig, a 56 210 2-door, and a beater/daily driver 65' C-20 that I'm going to sell a.s.a.p. Thanks guys, I'm counting the minutes, and waiting by the phone!
