Next up was bringing in the 450SE and stripping the drivetrain.

Up on the lift for evaluation of the underside.

Removal of the 450's engine...

the 450's transmission. Slightly shorter than the 6.9's due to the 6.9's internals being beefed up to handle the

extra torque.

The previous owners got creative when fabricating a new exhaust...

Check out the homemade dual exhaust!

Someone spent a lot of time welding these one foot lengths of pipe together.

Needless to say, this entire exhaust was headed for the dump.
