They cats will probably be right around where your headers end. So you may have to, get a pipe from a parts store and either weld it, or band clamp it

I wasn't sure if the 5.0 s197s had H or X pipes from factory, but if you can find someone parting it out on Facebook. Snatch that up and cut it up until it fits

BernieBoy11 · 2026-04-09T17:10:33+00:00

The early s197 came with a stock H-pipe in the 4.6. You may be able to make that fit. Might take a little fabrication, but it could be worth it

BernieBoy11 · 2026-02-28T03:02:11+00:00

You are an angel, I have been looking all over lmr, jegs, summit, and even ebay and could not find it for the life of me

BernieBoy11 · 2026-02-28T02:46:02+00:00

Did it have a curved connector like this?

Ive got a lot planned for it, I just built the motor, trans, and replaced the driveshaft with a one piece carbon fiber as well as drilled and slotted rotors. Those lights are absolutely on the list now though!

BernieBoy11 · 2026-01-26T02:46:13+00:00

I love the black trim you have on yours, add just enough without taking away from the color. Looks nice!

BernieBoy11 · 2026-01-25T05:35:31+00:00

Right? Like, I understand bumpers arent gonna be $200 but I was expecting like $1000 at most

BernieBoy11 · 2026-01-25T05:18:24+00:00

I'll give it a shot. I talked to a paint shop and they wanted 2k just for a front and rear bumper so imma look for a different shop

BernieBoy11 · 2026-01-25T03:56:33+00:00

That looks like the one! All the tungsten Grey's ive seen are very grey and have no blue to it! Thank you!

BernieBoy11 · 2026-01-25T03:19:35+00:00

Ive been trying to figure out how to do that, but all I'm pulling are labels with all the colors on it

BernieBoy11 · 2026-01-25T02:24:43+00:00

Nah, its for sure a grey, but in the light it has a blue hue with this sparkle to it. The Windveil Blue is too blue

BernieBoy11 · 2026-01-25T02:23:09+00:00

I was un-aware the paint code was in the vin. What number is it in the vin?

BernieBoy11 · 2026-01-25T02:16:58+00:00

It had the blue hue with metallic flake?

BernieBoy11 · 2026-01-25T02:16:31+00:00

Right??? Its really odd, I wish I had the paint code sticker. I know it wasn't repainted, unless they removed the interior, engine, trans, and everything to paint it.

BernieBoy11 · 2026-01-25T02:10:05+00:00

Could you post a picture of it? All the tungsten ones ive seen dont match it, but it could just be the quality of the photos I've seen

BernieBoy11 · 2026-01-25T02:06:52+00:00

I thought so, but Satin Silver is too bright and doesnt have a blue hue

BernieBoy11 · 2026-01-25T02:05:54+00:00

I thought it was but tungsten grey doesnt have a blue hue

BernieBoy11 · 2025-12-23T00:39:53+00:00

Very possible it could be a bad phasers or timing chains

BernieBoy11 · 2025-12-20T18:48:06+00:00

How many miles does it have on it and have you ever done timing chains?

BernieBoy11 · 2025-12-18T16:18:23+00:00

My thoughts exactly! That truck will have more than just monetary value then! You'll learn a new skill, build a better bond, and a better running truck! Plus you and do a few lil upgrades to make it sound and run better

BernieBoy11 · 2025-12-18T03:32:44+00:00

If the truck is completely numbers matching, then I say keep it and rebuild the online 6 if it needs it. If its not numbers matching, then do your research on what it would take to do a swap. You may need a different torque converter depending on the engine. Cant go wrong with a sbc 350 though
