Well Heck! Sign me up for one SS for each side for my front mounted turbo 8V92.

I don't even need one, but at the right price, I believe in being prepared.

It seems to me they might be slightly different if the turbo mount is not factory.

I would also like a SS turbo out to the muffler pipe. It's too cold to go measure it but it must be about 5" or better. Probably 6' long and hand made to fit where I wanted it. I have to replace it or fix it because of a couple of holes. I would rather ship it to Randy and have it duplicated. I think that would be the only way to ensure it fits correctly.

I have always believed there must be a better way. With 500 members now and all the folks on the other boards there is a vast pool of experience which can only make it more enjoyable for us!

This thread intrigues me as it should others that think outside the box!

I would venture to say Jerry is paying about the same as I do but he has to order in and it may be in stock for a couple of years before he sells a set

He has overhead like any other business with his cash tied up for year or better so and that cuts into his fishing money lol it takes Williams a week or so here to get a set so you pay a little more or wait

No problem Clifford. When I ordered mine I was told they have a source that builds them & were out. It only took a week.

Yep John but you can still build the one a lot cheaper than buying it from DD or Jefferson most people just look for a fast and easy way out and that costs lol

Well being here in L.A. (Lower Arkansas) I went to three different muffler shops and no one had a 3" die for the bending machines or pipe,,,smaller sizes as well as 4" & 5" for the bigger trucks, local NAPA didn't have correct size flex, mention "BUS" and they think your crazy, so that is why I went with Jefferson. Ed was super to work with and in two days I was on the road and the pipes (ordered both sides just because) looked great and fit perfectly. Sometimes its not a matter of money, stress kills and you can't take your money with you, and your other half, well I won't go there with the "I told you so secnerio",,,,bottom line, I really enjoy all the feedback and knowledge that is on our forum and appreciate everyone for the information. Hopefully I can be of some help to you guys one day when I learn the ins and outs to the "BUS",,,,think I'm gonna start using "COACH", that'll really blow their minds,,,,
