Default Got My New Exhaust Yesterday! Pics Added, Video Later

Well had my dads friend that he grew up with who owns a Meinike shop make me an exhaust. I wanted to keep my spare on so I dident get dual out, I had them put a FlowMaster original Super 40 with 2.50" pipeing out the back with a 3" Chrome tip. It looks great and Sounds insane! It rumbles nice and it loud. Along with my Cold Air Intake the throttle response has improved greatly!!! Also have improved with about 2.5-3mphs. Im going to try to get a video clip tonight or tomorrow.

HA yeah, And I need to do a good motor wash. Anyone agree or am I going to do it wrong, Let motor run for a few minutes get warm, Going to spray Engine Brite on keep on and sit for about 5-10 minutes and then rinse off with motor still running?

I've used engine degreaser twice. Once on my greasy/oily pontiac 400, and once on my vortec. I found that although it works GREAT for cutting through grease, its not so good on just filth. I'm gonna have to hand wash my engine this weekend cause its like yours, but not as bad.
