    Manual shiftting.

    I've got a friend who insists on manual shifting his 97 chevy. Its kind of annoying but at the same time the truck sounds a lot better at the higher rpms. Is it bad to manual shift an automatic as long as you don't let the rpms get to high? The trans is a 4l60e.

    Exhaust exit ideas??

    My exhaust is straight out the back now with slightly ovaled tips. I'm thinking I want something different. I like the look off an exhaust or else I would just dump it after the muffler but that just looks unfinished IMO. Any ideas??
