Xhaust update
I unboxed the mufflers from bassani and come to find out the shipped me the wrong ones. I ordered 2 4x8x16 center in offset out, they shipped me 2 offset in offset out on the same side. If my exhaust guy cant use then I am going to have to send them back.

That what I ordered all right but I ordered center in offset out model. In the comments that was just referring to the price of their muffler that was not on sale at $160 each. I got these for $160 for both.
I sent a pic of the muffler to my install guy and he sad he could make them work.

Not bad fro $620 I was originally going to go with LPP but hes out of stock and don't want to wait too long for it.

Quick update, I talked to the shop thats doing my swap and asked a few questions about n20. He recommended I go with a 9 inch rear end on my truck if I were to go with a 100 dry shot. He said he would tune it to have about 15 - 20 hp less so when i spray the motor make better use of of the n20. A better fuel pump is also in the works.
With that aid I might have to push the install date a few paychecks for the rear end and n20. Let me know what yall think. He says I will be pushing over 450hp with the cammed ly6 and n2o and the rest of my setup. Does that sound about right?

you're kidding right . . . a 9" rear????
yeah it's cool . . .yeah it'll be better than stock.
There's quite a few on here with the stock rear ends . . . You could run a 250 shot on the stock rear with a better than stock diff. Start reading up on lockers or a True Trac
Save your money on the rear and get a wet kit vs a dry kit.
