JJ, you'll need both flares & flaps with those big tires. I have stock size tires & even with flaps, the sides get pretty messy. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> Thinking of some step bars to help keep some of the gook off the doors. badger

The noise is very slight. The turbo whine and wind noise are more noticable. It's not 100% quiet, but it is nowhere near as noisy as a Flowmaster. Also, it doesn't resonate in the cab like a Flowmaster. Realize you have to weld it using appropriate stuff to weld stainless, and you must also use a pair of 3.5" to 4" adapters. I had a local muffler shop install mine. I like how it is tucked up out of the way, but I did need them to put a slight bend in the tail pipe--you can't see it unless you look at the truck from the bottom--to get the tailpipe up and out of the way. The bonus is my tailpipe is higher off the ground than it was stock. Here is Magnaflow's website: http://www.magnaflow.com/

Thanks, Blaine. "Resonate" was the word I was searching for and Flowmasters are about the worst for doing it. From that website, there's a Magnaflow dealer about 3 miles from my home.
Just FYI, if you have an interest in a deeper tranny pan (more fluid volume, about 3 more quarts) for that Allison, the part # is 29536522 at < 50$. Another part # used is 29536891 or 29537966 for the new suction filter and tube extension for the filter at ~ 22$. Draining and removing the old pan, and putting on the new pan will require you add back 11 and 1/4 quarts of fluid. I've got one but haven't installed it yet.
The degree of my privacy is no business of yours.

Old Toot, try this link. Not the one I was looking for, but a good video nonetheless. This is a Ford Super Duty with a Cummins 6-banger in it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> http://turbodieselregister.com/foru...1938045058587b338&threadid=86688Click on the link to the video on the second page of this thread, badger
