2003 Sierra V6 i bought in 2006, in 2012 if i hadn't wrecked it, I still would be driving it. But I bough a 2007 Classic Silverado, had 75000 on it, currently has 146000 on it.
I had a 1994 F150. It was a F150 4x4 Ext Cab 302 5 spd. Bought it new & when I sold it, it had 780,000 miles was the best pickup I have ever owned. Mine had both cats deleted, cold air intake, & new muffler. Mileage went from 15mpg to 22 mpg. I ran it on full synthetic oil, synthetic diff fluid front & back, synthetic trans fluid. Even synthetic fluid in the transfer case. I live in Northern Alberta where in the winter can get down to -40. I finally got rid of the truck after 13 years. The body was getting like Swiss cheese. Man, I miss that old truck.
Seeing the guy I watched everytime your showed air TV : Even RUclips and watching you actually work from a reg garage with very minimal tools. Just gives me that much more confidence in all my at home truck projects I do.
@@LawrenceTolman I’ve definitely learned a lot watching power block / truck tech. Power nation etc. but once RUclips got big my skills grew 10 fold and it’s cause guys like you! We appreciate you!
I got black window window makers on my 1982 f150. loud as hell. Also its a 96 351w out of an f250 so its a roller with big cam after market heads. running a fitech for injection and a torque storm super charger with mishimoto intercooler. finishing up some wiring and it should be good to go.
This generation is one of the best trucks you can buy today. I've worked on, owned and driven all and this body style is so far ahead of what GM and Dodge produced. Keep up the awesome content!
@@TheSlim93gt true, the quality was lacking. The dash was a joke until 95/96, when they put the cassette player with the radio, like it should have been from the start.
I have a soft spot for these trucks. My friend had a '91 with dual exhaust when I was in high school. That truck sounded perfect. I remember doing burnouts in that truck on the way to the lake. Good times.
The front tank wasn't an option on reg cab/short bed 4x4s, simply because there isn't any room for it. The transfer case and front drive shaft take up about 2/3s of the space, would of ended up with a extremely small tank if they tried to wedge one in there. You could get the dual tanks on a 2wd reg cab/short bed, but again because of space the front tank is smaller/shorter then it is on a long bed or extended cab truck.
I am so glad you keep your background music at a sensible level. Too many creators blast out the music which is so annoying. Good content and enjoyable to watch. I wish you every success for the future.
Had a Bassani cat-back for my 1998 Cobra quite a few years back. Sounded damn good. Even came with resonator baffles in case I wanted to quiet it down for a long drive
L T. I'm a GM man but hay thay all need some love I'm not that biased Years ago I used to buy what was called a Royal Scots muffler made by WALKER it looked kinda like a glass pack but it was baffled the one's that I bought had a header flang and whith no pipe on them man thay sounded sweet
Given the amount of oil leaks I wouldn’t want to weld underneath there either lol. I’m a Ford guy so I understand oil leaks, one repair / upgrade at a time. Nice content
Man I love those boxy F150s. Last great trucks Ford made. I had a 95 and drove it across the country twice. Loved that truck and still have a soft spot for them.
I have three different sizes of the exhaust pipe expanders. Best method for me was to insert the tool further in the pipe. After it is in the pipe, expand it as much as you can within reason and shape the outside with a hammer. Expand more, loosen and turn it slightly to get the metal pads on a different part of the pipe. Keep opening it up and hammering it. Eventually, you may need to make some relief cuts, but they should atlest be an inch or so long if you have the space. Four cuts around with reshaping with the hammer will open it up. Tack weld each relief cut in the beginning of the cut and the end. Do this while the tool is still expanded. Shouldn't take longer than 10 minutes each. You can do a series of tacks to close the gaps and sand them smooth to fit inside the pipe and sand the inside with a tootsie roll sanding roll to clean the inside.
Excellent videos on this old Ford. I like how you gave info on the parts. It always seems like most videos are "here's our pile of parts, we'll stick em together, 30 second montage DONE" and it's not enough for the guy at home. This and the other video had great tips and I appreciate it. Keep it coming man!!
I had the same in longbed, 2.5 duals out each side at 90 deg. no crossover, 18" glasspacks offset a couple inches on the longer pipe. Also had a red ugly truck with 6.0. You are cramping my style Lt. Lol
Cool build & your first customer of the year! Of course Ford has that reputation of doing things different. Still those year trucks were cool at that time. I had many friends in high school driving them around Jacked up on 40" tires. GReat times till all the land got developed & beaches were closed up to drive on due to accidents & calls to get unstuck from the rising tide on shore. Those were crazy times.
Love your work! The headers will be a nice touch. I put shorties on all my small block Fords. They seem to benefit across the board. I've never sprung for the equal length though.
Nice work on this exhaust! I have watched older videos that you have done in regards to building exhaust systems and you really have an eye for this! Can't wait to see it all together and hear it run! :)
Awesome! I've got a 94 F150 myself. gonna be doing an exhaust on it here soon. It's only a 300ci I-6, but I've got an idea. Up here in Michigan, we don't have any emissions testing. so, I picked up a dual-in, single out 2.5" Magnaflow 14" body I'm gonna use as basically a y-pipe and a resonator, then step it up to 3" to a Jones performance two-chamber muffler, basically almost identical to a Flowmaster 40 series, and run a 3.5" dump right before the rear axle. it should have that nice classic Flowmaster style rumble but I think the Magnaflow will tone it down enough to be pretty tame for every day driving.
Technically that’s an Aeronose Ford. The OBS Ford term was coined when they came out with the Super Duty trucks to distinguish between the the older Aeronose 7.3 Powerstroke and the new chassis 7.3 Powerstroke. Hope this helps 👍🏼
They must not do a full emission component check in Utah. Slap the probe in the tailpipe & test. Going from 2 cats to a single usually gets you a fail. Either way, nice job on the Y pipe.
I personally have a Black Widow Widowmaker (the second loudest i believe) attached to my 2005 Silverado 5.3. I swapped to that from a flowmaster super 10 and i havent really looked back, although id much prefer for you to do my whole exhaust,
Well talk about timing, looks like the cats are failing on my mom's 5.4 super duty and instead of buying that real expensive y-pipe with OE cats I was going to replace them with legal high flow cats so looks like this video came out exactly when I needed it to. I think you made the right choice going with shorty's, on my '89 f350 460 I put long tubes on it before I eventually ended up deciding to go a turbo route (not done yet) and the long tube collectors are right in line with the radius arm brackets. My long tubes actually tuck up very tightly in the frame rail but it did require a longer run before it was able to be merged back into a single 3". I currently don't have cats because my truck is 32 years old and I live in a place where emissions testing doesn't happen but I definitely understand going with shorty's to get your merge closer to the engine so that you can put on a single cat that works more efficiently than having to potentially add two cats because of the run before they merge. Also I kinda figure any tubular manifold/header will outperform a cast log manifold.
Looks pretty good. You do great work. I've always heard that equal length headers are tuned for a specific rpm. Regular headers might lose peak torque at one rpm, but the different length primaries are tuned for a broader range and equal out over the powerband. I've always been more of a gm guy, but I'm a gearhead above all else, so it's nice to see varying content. The different sized collector pipes are strange. Maybe Ford did that to broaden the powerband a little. Keep that torque curve super flat. I've got an Edelbrock intake manifold for a 2.8L v6. The driver's side intake runners are almost square and the passenger's side runners are practically twice as tall as they are wide. It's not quite that exaggerated, but there is a definite size difference. I think that was to flatten the torque curve as well. The engine needs low end, so the smaller runners help power with off-idle port velocity and as they are running out of breath, the larger ones pick up the slack with higher flow up in the powerband. Their dyno result graphics show a super flat torque curve. Can't wait to see (and hear) the rest of the system.
Fun truck. Nice to see one with the 5.8! I would love to add some gloss to that paint. Looks like it had a Flowmaster 70 - did I see that right? It actually sounded nice, although to my ears it sure seemed like the stock cat was really plugged.

LT my friend, you need a lift. I’m sure I’m not the first to say that. They’re not that expensive and you may find a fan to sell you one used from a garage somewhere. 👍 Keep working brother.
You'd enjoy my project. I'm stuffing an L83 in a 37 Chev PU. I've already put a FATMAN MII front end in and a TCI spring kit. I've got a 99 Explorer axle with 3.73 gears, but it's open. I'm pretty sure Im going to need some sort of positraction. I've never set gears. Hell, I've never done anything I'm doing, but I'll give it a shot. Right now I'm adding boxing to the frame.
During youre voiceover while working on the truck (14+ minutes) i couldnt hear basically anything you said. Youll have to lower the volume on the video when doing voice over. Great video, love seeing a real ( ;) ) OBS on the channel!
I own three of these trucks now. 1989, and two 1994s. I know the 89 is considered another generation, but 1987 thru 1996 F150s all have the same basic designs. I built one of my 94s to tow with, replacing the 5.0 with a torque based 5,.8, and replacing the Mazda 5 spd with the ZF out of a 250. I wouldn't take anything for this truck.
What TIG welder are you using in this video? I need to start building stainless exhausts. I just spent some good time building an aluminized steel system on my Tahoe. Dual thrush glasspacks merged into a single tailpipe. I know the MIG welds may only last a few years.
1980 to 1986 was the bullnose 1987 to 91 was the square front end 1992 to 96 and bronco 1997 it was all new front Expect the f250 kept the same front till later
Off topic ? A while ago for PWN you did awd Chevy truck well doing research trying to see if it’s possible to turn off awd in 2012 Denali Yukon ? I haven’t looked to see if mechanical or electric it’s just for burn outs before making passes at the track. I can tune out any limp modes I hope if it’s electrical driven. With Hp tuners obviously if it’s mechanical not gonna happen. Love the channel I’m one of Kyle’s Patreon’s at GRG sorry for the wired question. God Bless !
I'm not positive how the transfer case works on the 2012, but I'd be willing to bet its not just something you can turn on and off with a tune, its likely a mechanical part of the transfer case
@@LawrenceTolman yeah I was going for a more manual approach or electronic but that would be nice if I could do it with my laptop lol . I’m going to take a look at it again if it has an acuator I’m assuming it would be possible. But might have to tell the computer it’s fine for it to be off cause I’m pretty sure it would put him into limp mode . But that’s the fun of it lol thank You keep up the awesome content .

I believe the reason for the different size pipes is the pipe length to the y of the pipe to get even exhaust pressure

Wish I lived closer, in a need of an exhaust built on my 351w swapped 96 bronco😫😫
FYI, shorty headers are a cosmetic upgrade. Even equal length. They don't add power. Long tube headers will add power everywhere.
Good to see a Ford!
That is a nice truck. I wish that I could find them that clean around here.
Looking forward to more videos with this truck. Definitely my favorite generation as well.

What TIG welder are you using in this video? I need to start building stainless exhausts. I just spent some good time building an aluminized steel system on my Tahoe. Dual thrush glasspacks merged into a single tailpipe. I know the MIG welds may only last a few years.
Next you should do my Comanche exhaust
Start building another obs
Don't know if anyone spoke up yet. But your suburban body style is the GM "OBS" and the ugly truck is considered the NBS or new body style.
Still a Great video....
Nice work LT
1980 to 1986 was the bullnose
1987 to 91 was the square front end
1992 to 96 and bronco
1997 it was all new front Expect the f250 kept the same front till later
F250 switched in 1998. 1997 F250 still had this body.
More length and bends in the driver's side tube the passenger side is a straight shot
i think i’ve seen you on tv before
OMG LT it's a Ford but I agree I do like that body style . This could be interesting Ford can use all the help you can give it.
Want to do that to my xlt 👽
No mufflers. No cat. Pipes son

i think the flathead sounds best, but i'm an old guy
Think I'd like to find 250 in this series. I can't afford any of the newer trucks.
All single cab short bed f-150's that was 4x4 only had a rear tank because the front tank would clear the transfer case
thats good to know!
They look great but they are a nightmare to work on. The cab mounts are shot we can see
What maniac doesn’t start their truck open header when their doing an exhaust. Lol
oh, I did, just didnt record it lol
Might want to open up the garage door a bit while running that rig in there..........
very true...
Where did you get the mandrel bend kit? I think I could possibly pull something like this off. Albeit MIG’ed instead of TIG. Very nice work!
Off topic ? A while ago for PWN you did awd Chevy truck well doing research trying to see if it’s possible to turn off awd in 2012 Denali Yukon ? I haven’t looked to see if mechanical or electric it’s just for burn outs before making passes at the track. I can tune out any limp modes I hope if it’s electrical driven. With Hp tuners obviously if it’s mechanical not gonna happen. Love the channel I’m one of Kyle’s Patreon’s at GRG sorry for the wired question. God Bless !
I'm not positive how the transfer case works on the 2012, but I'd be willing to bet its not just something you can turn on and off with a tune, its likely a mechanical part of the transfer case
@@LawrenceTolman yeah I was going for a more manual approach or electronic but that would be nice if I could do it with my laptop lol . I’m going to take a look at it again if it has an acuator I’m assuming it would be possible. But might have to tell the computer it’s fine for it to be off cause I’m pretty sure it would put him into limp mode . But that’s the fun of it lol thank
You keep up the awesome content .
How do you plan on what bends you will need? The 4th gen ram has a restrictive y pipe and idk what bends to get besides a new merge collector
I honestly just kinda stare at the bottom of the truck for about an hour and map it out in my head lol
Was there 2 cats or was that middle thing a resonator?
I think its a second cat
