I've got a V8 conversion and looking for advice/opinions on what direction to go on exhaust routing. Exit in front of rear tires, behind rear tires or out the back?

Down inside of left frame rail, above skid plate, and out/down behind left rear tire. You can tuck a muffler up under the rear bed. A flexible section somewhere near the middle is a good idea and keeps you from breaking hangers while wheeling.
All of the way out the back dumping at the rear corner of the tub.

Staying inside the frame on the drivers side is going to be a piece of work because your pipe must clear the frame, the fire wall, the slave cylinder, and the shift fork- - -good luck.

That's petty clean exhaust routing. Looks good.
Some of mine. No issue getting past shift fork or slave cylinder.

Not sure Archie, but for the OP I ran up to my storage unit a snapped a few pictures. I used 1962ish Corvette ramhorns. No idea if my exhaust routing is good or bad. The guy I hired seemed sharp. I told him I wanted it as quiet as possible. It's a little louder than I had hoped, but sometimes I do smile when I hear it.
