Got my headers and dual 3" exhaust!!!!

I just got my Hooker super comp headers and true dual 3"exhaust today. The headers go straight into 3" pipes and into (2) 1-chamber flowmaster mufflers and dumps in front of the rear axle. I went ahead and wrapped the dr side exhaust and the fuel lines with heat wrap that people normally use for headers to help keep the fuel lines cool. Man,what a difference in top end. And the sound- holy *&^%!!

I would like to see some pics also. I am interested in this, so I looked at the bottom of my car, and I am not sure how I would run these. Please get some pictures.

Thanks,

Okay.Here's the deal: The pipes are ran straight from the collectors with no bends in the pipes.The mufflers are the very small one chambers that can be somewhat tucked in the small recessed area of the floorpan right behind and under the rear seats.I made brackets and my friend welded them to the mufflers and then to a thick spot on the floorpan somewhere under there.The only problem with this is that it is low and drags every speed bump in the world.The floorpan area where the mufflers are can be banged in a little to make more room for the mufflers.It will be banged right under the rear seats,so you won't notice it from the inside.I will probably do that sometime within the week.And my car sits about 1 3/4" lower than stock,so I drag the pipes over speed bumps and the angle on my driveway.I will take pics when I raise the mufflers up some this weekend.

One time I hired a monkey to take notes for me in class. I was just sitting there with my mind a complete blank while the monkey scribbled on little pieces of paper.
At the end of the week the teacher said "Class I want you to write a paper using your notes." So I wrote a paper that said, "Heeelo my name is Bingo. I like to climb on things. Can I have a bananna? EKK EKK." I got an F! When I told my mom she said,"I told you NEVER trust a MONKEY!"
thee end
