I spelled his name wrong! OOps... It's Ed Hanson's Muffler
Service (619) 698-7030 He's in San Diego, CA. He has been quite
a few magazines (Trucking, Sport Truck, others...) doing exhaust
setups for them... He has done quite a few 'special' setups
(early '92-'93 Dakotas) a while back...I am not current with
what is out, or what he does for, '96-up Dakotas (Mine's a '95
with only one O2 sensor), but he's worth a the phone call to find
out.
Also Jules from Magnum Performance should have the latest
scoop on ANY Dakota related issue... (713) 754-RACE... In
TEAAAAAXAAS.... :)
