If you have 2 of those 7.4 fuel rails one of them is worth more than the entire load of scrap smh. People are paying 500 or more for them

Ok, now I'm getting sad too lol.

Isn't that rebuildable 350 worth around 100 bucks still? Don't those intakes have some value as well? I know at least the injectors would be handy to have around for future use.

When you can find a buyer, sure they are.

Damn. Sounds like I accidentally lowballed my buddy. I told him I'd pay 200 (which he accepted) for his complete Vortec 7.4 injection setup that he won't be using. I had thought I was ponying up for it.

You didn't.

Put a post up for 500 and see how many people you get asking when they can pick it up vs how many you get asking if you'll take 40 bucks, a stick of gum, an xbox that doesn't work, will it fit my 305, how do I use it, how many miles were on it, what brand of gas was used in it.

 

[Jrgunn5150]

I'll tell you all what, come get anything you want off that trailer for free by Friday 04/03/2026.

Look forward to everyone wishing they were closer.

Yeah, so the whole process of selling stuff these days is a terrible one, which is why I can't blame you to scrap that stuff. I just couldn't bring myself to do it. If there's potential value in something to someone at some point, I tend to hang onto it. It's not a lifestyle for everyone and I will admit that, lol.

I have totes of stuff, I have three pallet racks, full of totes of stuff lol.

At some point, have to start making choices, and if it's outside, it's gotta go. If I've tried to sell it more than 3 times, it's gotta go. If I can't give it away, it goes in the next load of scrap.

What's funny is, you literally can't make anyone happy lol. Half the people say my yard is a junk heap, call the county, blah blah blah. The other half ask why I don't keep everything forever

And as far as the SpinTechs go, I have a pair on my van with no tailpipes. The drone really isn't that significant like a Flowmaster 40 would be.

I've had the opposite experience with Spintechs. Had a 6000 on my first Z71 15yrs ago and couldn't stand the drone, even put a resonator in line and still couldn't stand it. Then about 3yrs ago my buddy put them on his LS swapped OBS and same thing, they sound killer but after a couple hours on the road you don't wanna get back in the truck it drones so bad

I wonder if length of vehicle and tailpipes matter? I bet they do. @bucket had them on his van, so there is a few extra feet of pipe involved. And maybe the volume of open space helps with minimizing drone inside the cab?

Usually open space makes it worse. When I had the Borlas on my truck (before they wore in), they were very mild. My buddy had them on his Blazer and they were much louder.

Length of pipe can go either way, can make more reverberation or make it quieter, depending on bends/straights/etc. Tailpipes always help, but in both those instances I stated above, the trucks had full tail pipes out the back and swept to the corners.

I had a dual-in/dual-out Borla muffler on Mean Green, the guy routed the exhaust to the outside of the frame, so the muffler was where an auxiliary tank could go, and he ran the pipe out to the corner of the rear bumper. It was loud-ish, but not too bad. When I got Crusty Biscuit, the PO had it as dual exhaust with the mufflers tucked up to where they cleared the trailing arms, and the pipes routed over the axle, but not out the back. That thing droned really bad when driving low speeds. I had a single exhaust system installed, but the guy made a weird y-pipe that wouldn't allow an oil change, and he flattened the pipe and cut the cross member to install the pipe. When I saw all of this I was pissed! The truck did not drone with this setup, though.

Needing an exhaust system that allowed me to work on things if I needed to without dropping the exhaust, I dragged the old Borla exhaust out to install on Crusty. Well, I didn't take into account that the HO52 axle is narrower than the Dana 60, and the pipes wouldn't go in between the tire and frame. This was exhaust swap was right before going on a trip, so no trip to an exhaust shop to have the tailpipes rerouted out the back. Off to autozone, pepboys, oreillys, to find exhaust parts and pieces, and then cut the pipe just aft of the muffler. Voila!

While this worked, it was LOUD!, and it droned way worse at low speeds! It was miserable on that trip, and on the way home there was a fire, so we had to go out through Nevada from Lee Vining and back in at Bishop. 13 hour drive that day with that loud exhaust and droning. I was exhausted!

LOL...you can see the new exhaust behind the Borla muffler, I had forgotten that I had to leave that muffle and tailpipe in place for the trip...lol...

When I got back I took it in, and had the exhaust shop do a blended system, utilizing the muffler in the background and removing the Borla. No more drone.

I don't remember which model they are. I put them on with the intention of doing a single 4" tailpipe (got one already), but it's been over 2 years and still nothing.
