Well here's a pic of what I did. I pretty much just used the existing manifold and attached an elbow so that the muffler would point to the front of the truck, rather than to the side. I didn't want to do this, but I really had no choice. Now that I think about it, I'd like to move the muffler to the side of the truck, so it runs along the side of the truck by where the pull start is, rather than in the middle of the truck. It would eliminate much of my 'custom' work and put it closer to stock specs. But just so you know, this is using the stock savage pipe, this is not a hp aftermarket pipe. I would think that a custom manifold might have a negitive impact on a specially tuned aftermarket pipe, but that said, I ran the truck for a while with the muffler pointed the other way, and now that I've ran it like this for a while, I've noticed no difference in top or bottom end performance. I am skeptical as to how much of a negitive impact that the extra section of pipe would have on a tuned pipe, but I would not rule it out as a very distinct possibillity. Anyway, here's a pic of what I did. In the pic you can see exactly what I did, and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see why I had to to change the orientation of the muffler.

edit: and if you're wondering about that funky air filter system, but it's just a temp until the end of the week.
