hell, I might get some stainless electrodes and do some test welds on a couple pieces of tubing I have lying around to see how well it works.I hate to pay other people for things that I can do myself.
I do know that I drive torque, while listening to my friends prattle on about horsepower.
the motor mounts will be all but solid when the diesel goes in(hockey pucks) so I am not too worried about it breaking, I might put a support from the back of the block to the downpipe too.as for the flow, the two 1.5 pipes do not equal a 3" at all, the 2.5" will flow much better than the two 1.5" flexes.

I am seriously thinking about just replacing the flex sections with solid tubing and making a brace to the block, that would cut costs down quite a bit.
That's a ripoff, I went to the local exhaust fabber and bought a 2.25" ID 8" long braided flex coupler for 25 bucks, no shipping and that's usually the killer. Look around and see if a local shop has one .Here's my piece welded in to the DP,
