insane_dodge's 1997 Dodge Dakota Here is pic. of the EastCoast Customs roll pan that had to be modified to accomidate the dual exhaust. Also a Flame Throwing kit was added, which allows the truck to shoot flames out of each exhaust roughly 2-3 feet in length. (still waiting for someone to stand close enough to take a pic. of the truck throwing flames, I'll keep you posted)

insane_dodge's 1997 Dodge Dakota Sorry about the Pic. quality. The shot is a little blury, and the flames weren't at full length. But it gives you an idea of what the flame throwing kit can do, and what it looks like. (a better pic. of the flaming exhaust will be posted shortly)
