Testing The Jake Brake In The Newell! (Straight Pipe Detroit Series 60)
What happens here
Before permanent installation, the presenter test-fits a previously cut piece of aluminized exhaust pipe. He identifies that the cut may be slightly off-angle and plans to orient the slip joint to achieve the correct alignment. He also notes that the rotation of this piece will help set the final height and angle of the exhaust exit. He confirms that he will create a new bracket for the end of the exhaust to prevent rotational movement, while retaining the existing muffler brackets for potential future re-installation of a muffler.
Goal: Ensure proper fit and alignment of the exhaust extension
