    New build 454 and the wife hates the exhaust smell

    Excellent writeup. I put the magnaflo cat on mine and it's 95% improved. Zero loss in power.

    Help with grinding/whirring sound!

    No but it's probably bearings somewhere in the drivetrain. Wheel, Axle or carrier. Do you have a 2 piece driveshaft? Also check brake drums for worn and out of round. Metal contracts when cool, expands when hot.

    New build 454 and the wife hates the exhaust smell

    Sniper, cats? I got nothing. @Vbb199 did use a word I've never seen before though. "Enlean"? Lol

    Could be the flux capacitor about to activate at precisely 91 mph thus sending him back to 1985?

    Installing a New Exhaust System Including Headers

    I agree 100% with Fred. And, I'll add the Hooker Cast manifolds are even better. But, I doubt the OP is going to change course at this point if he's spent big bucks on Ceramic Coated Long Tubers.

    Detroit Locker question......

    Mine was ok with the th400. Swapped in a 4500 and I instantly hated it on pavement at any speed.

    CROSS MEMBER FRAME BROKEN

    Removing the engine will make the job a lot easier. Replacing it with an LS will make it a lot more satisfying.

    Quickchange Rear Ends for Square Bodies

    QC's are sexy as hell. And, easier to spell QC correct than "aXLe".

    Rear shackle angle

    Lol. I was just looking at the photos again and I agree because of the springs arch. I went thru something similar on my D60 on the front but it had flat springs and bends the other way. My bad.

    Rear shackle angle

    So now when the spring compresses the shackle moves forward. In doing so, it's gonna lift the truck because of the pivot point location. Will it matter? Not if you don't know any better.

    Heavy vibration at highway speed under load

    If it doesn't have much engagement and there is any wear on the splines that will also cause an issue. My unseated bearing resulted in about 1/16th of an inch in perceptible radial play. It doesn't take much to cause a viration.

    1985 Long Bed Floor and Bedsides

    I have questions on how you separated the pieces. Are they all bolted together or is there any cutting flanges/spot welds to separate them?

    Heavy vibration at highway speed under load

    It's gotta be a wear item if it just started. Bearings or bushings. I had a very similar issue that took me months to figure out. A loose bearing on the output shaft of the t-case. I know you don't have a t-case but I'd surmise the same issue could happen with the output shaft of the...
