Default LT's are on (a few pics)

I finally installed my Dynatech's this weekend that I bought from 1slow01z71 along with his custom y-pipe. Took me a little longer than I expected, but when it's easy you don't appreciate it as much. I did have a few casualties.



So now I have new plug wires and I just used one of my rear 02 sensors to replace the one I had to cut.

I installed them with the stock gaskets and bolts. I coated the y-pipe with POR-20 and i'm going to coat the rest of the exhaust once I figure out if i'm happy with it. I cut my tip off so it is dumped right after the axle. It looks much better that way. There are a couple spots that are tight especially next to the steering shaft. I think this is because of my body lift. The bend that should go above the shaft is now right next to mine. I think the pacesetter design probably works better with a body lift. No big deal though, i'm just going to use a different bolt so that I get some more clearance. Only one plug wire is touching, but I used some heat protectors on them so that is solved.

Overall i'm happy with them so far. Sound great on acceleration and are pretty much as quiet as it was before while cruising. Seems to be running pretty good even without tunning yet. I can notice a good increase in power and response. Here are a few pics.

I bought them used together. Not sure of the part # on the headers.

Got them from a local store. They are made by Taylor. Summit has them for $55 I think. Seem like they are going to work good. I have a couple that are touching the headers as you can see and don't seem to be hurting them.

Here's a link to them on summit. They aren't showing colors, but I know you can get silver, black, red, and blue. There are other companies that make them too.
