My truck has a turbo 350/205 combo that uses bolt on yokes, not the slip yoke.
As far as the exhaust, mine runs under the crossmember,outside of the frame, then exits in the same location as yours. I have a suburban tank under the bed in the rear, so my flowmaster's are where the stock tank would be.

You do realise that dropping the rear of the transfercase increases the front angle which is the one that needs to be reduced.

This is one of the blocks i ordered off line. 3"x3"x12". I am going to machine this down into a spacer which will be 3" tall and 3"-3.5" long until i get my 14 bolt then i will cut it down to a 1.5" tall spacer.

Wouldnt lowering the transfer case 3 inches put a lot of stress on the motor mounts and twist them?

You can clock it and it does not affect the mounts, and reduces driveline angles. Dropping it ir raising it affects drive angles, mounts, and firewall clearances.

Have you thought about running a divorced transfer case set up?. I had one on my truck when it had a 12" lift

Yes they make clocking rings so you can turn the t-case so the front output is lower/higher, and the input/rear output stays the same.

Would that affect the shifter linkage? Who makes such kits?
