I don't think either of them look good at all, but the first version looks less bad. Just my $.02. If you like it, that's what matters.

I called dibs on them..

I will be honest and say they would look much better on a truck that came with them rather than my 85 which does not.. but 85 is the last yr for a stepside.

they would be less gooberish looking than the 2 sticks of pipe I was looking at to make a set of stacks with no shields though.

I vote for no stacks on tow vehicles. I don't even like rear exit on tag towing pick ups.

Side exit or behind rear wheels.

Actually side exit is illegal in Illinois, and I had a heck of a time with my Lil Red in the late 80's trying to get it passed through emissions. I finally had to bring in factory brochures and they gave me an exemption. I am not sure about dumping behind the axle either, I will have to find out.

Turn the tips of the stacks 90 degrees so the blow out to the sides. It made a big difference on my LRT

Especially now that I remember you said you put those "prince of darkness" injectors in that truck. They're called that for a reason.

I forgot about those new injectors, I have noticed a bit more smoke coming out the back...

I say run the stacks, just turn them out about 45 degrees, or maybe more.

I had a stack on my truck for a long while, and when I towed soot wasn't an issue.

Plus in the mock up, I think they look really cool!
