Duals are routed down the passenger side and into a dual inlet/dual outlet flowmaster muffler which also acts like a pro chamber to equalize exhaust pressures on each pipe or like a H/ X-pipe. Right now it dumps are the rear end which I'm tired of... And I should have the rest of the duals built out to the bumper with stainless tips by next week. Here's some current pix
Hey thanks man and that's cool, I haven't seen any of those types of swaps yet. On my build I tried to keep everything as clean and OEM looking as possible so I'm running my stock gauges
Hey thanks a lot guys, I appreciate the complements! This TJ has been quite the entertaining build and most definitely pleased with the results and reliability of it all. It runs, drives and performs flawlessly like it just rolled out of the factory with this V8 conversion.
No I haven't used the HP tuner program yet, just running the stock tune for now. However, that is the works for this jeep within the next month or two.
Very clean looking swap, if you want to see a clean magnum swap check my build thread out. Like you, I attempted to make it look as factory as possible. Great job!
Thank you! And I checked out your swap as well, nice job on that, def looks clean!
Have you done a rear end swap yet? I did an 8.8 swap recently along with gears and locker and it was a little tough getting everything lined up and centered correctly under the truck, but it was worth it. This thing is huge compared to the D35, looks better, stops better w/ the factory explorer disc brakes and is near unbreakable. Ive had several 8.8s in foxbody mustangs over the years, one w/ 1000+hp and bagged sticky slicks at the track blasting out of the hole time and time again and they all held up great, so I know this one surely hold up lol
