Yes, thanks for removing that dufus looking pipe. I would have been ok with a stack just behind the cab, left or right side. The under-chassis with driver side exit is best & sounds good too! Suggestions: (A)refit the I/C in Front of the radiator, (B) change Turbine hot-side to smaller A/R & Electronic Boost Controller (EBC) to wsste gate for quicker transient (spool up) response. (maybe install EBC 1st & test B4 turbine housing swap. That might be enough so you don't have to wait. Right on ya'll !

Personally I take a grinder with a wire wheel to bolts that have alot of rust and corrosion on them. Before I even try to remove. I don't know how many I've gotten free and they end up galling when you get to the exposed threads. Precleaning them helps to eliminate that problem. I work in a mineral/vitamin/ feed mill and all the mineral cause extreme wear. I've taken off bolts that were installed a year previous but look similar to bolts that have been on a vehicle for 50 years. Penetrating oil and heat is great for breaking it free but you'll want to remove any potential issues after that.

I'd love to see that truck get freshened up underneath both visually and functionally, get some taller gears to make it more streetable and somewhat restored to its former glory. Maybe keep with the white paint scheme and give it blue accents to match the 300 and some fresh chrome to bring her back around. That truck has so much potential and it could all be done within a very reasonable budget 🤙🤙🤙

It'll take a lot more then the boost they are running to break a 300 rod. It'll pop a head gasket long before it hurts the crank or rods. I've got 7 240/300's right now and have owned many more. The weak link on the engines are stock pistons on the early engines ( break skirts ) and the head gaskets. And if you do pop a head gasket and hydraulic the engine you'll bend a rod. These engines came stock with forged rods. As long as it has ARP rod bolts it's good to go.

So you decided to lop off the flatbed and frame rails on a on ton truck which is completely pointless. And you ruined the frame for any future owners of the truck. Then you lowered the front without checking or changing the caster at all and then complained about the steering. I suspect you didn't bother checking the pinion angle in the back either when you dropped it. Then we'll get to hear you complain when it destroys or breaks the U-joints or driveshaft. At least you fixed the exhaust. Much better.
