So I took it to an exhaust shop the next day to have them help me out since it would be easier on a lift.

Well once everything was all good to go, the guy that put the OAP back on (they decided it was easier to remove it), I guess didn't realize that there's a reasoning to the guide being there. So now my driver side muffler has a slight downward angle, and sticks out a little further than the passenger...

I apologize for the big picture and thread jack, but in this picture, you can tell the difference...

Is it me or does that say 6.0 on the side? I think we have a traitor among us guys.

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

Glare and picture distortion. Or it may be a rare factory, bored and stroked 366.
