looking good Rider! Can't wait to see/hear the vid. The next to the last bend to the mufflers seems a bit low. I hope they won't scrape the grounds over bumps. Also, that's a long running pipe without any support. Do you have any concerns with that in the long run? Looking hot otherwise, congrats!

Thanks .. Rode over many bumps (some huge) and no scraping whatsoever. The piping is well supported and has lifetime warranty

welcome to the club surprised more haven't done this yet. post up some youtube videos as Im curious how it sounds on the 460 vs the 430 I used to own.

also did they move your primary o2 sensors further back? looks like they capped the original bungs and moved then further back. My old car, US spec, had 3 total.

They did. The first rusted part my exhaust is part of the invidia midpipe where the bungs were designed for the 300s and not the V8s.

Since you're already 90% there, have you thought about custom-made 180 degree headers?
