puttin a CAT stack on my 1st gen

well I picked up an 8" CAT stack for cheap and I'm gonna put it on ol blacky. I can't wait to put it on, I just need some 4" pipe to make a downpipe and then I'm goin 5" from the end of the t case up into the bed and than I'm gonna make a 5" to 8" flange to connect to my CAT stack. I can't wait to put it on and see what it sounds like! here is an idea of what it will look like, I just set it on a 5 gallon bucket.



oh and I found a piece of 8" stovepipe in our basement so i think I will put that on the bottom of the CAT stack so It will be 8" from the bottom of the bed up.

what do you guys think???

Should sound deep but it might make it look like a tug boat.

That would look great, do you know from what piece of equipment it came?

If I were ever going to do a stack, that would be the style I would do... 6" or 7" though... First time I've seen an 8"...
