No, and it seems like a lifetime ago, but I've renewed my interest because I now have a garage to work in and it's winter. My brother and I are going to try to get the old manifolds off on Monday and take it from there. I believe that removing the rusted on manifolds and re-routing the brake lines will be the biggest challenge for now. I'd still like a reference for the installing cut-outs, mufflers, tailpipes, etc. but someone mentioned a madrel bend system. Thanks for the follow-up.
