What to do with Factory parts
Just wondering if it's worth making space to store the original 5.0 cold air intake CIA & Mufflers? FYI we weight the 5.0 factory mufflers, 20lbs each, felt like 25lbs. The new Bassoni axelback 14lbs each

I always keep my stock parts. One reason is so if I ever sell the car, I can return it to stock. I've never regretted keeping stock parts around, but I have regretted in the past when I sold or got rid of the stock parts.

I've kept every part.
If and when I sell the car I can recoup far more value by returning it to stock as much as possible and selling the aftermarket parts to the good people here.

I regret dumping my cars stock parts, specially the stock air intakes.

Definitely keep the stock parts. When/if you decide to sell, return the car to stock as much as you can, and sell it that way. You'll make more money and get more interest.
My last car I owned was returned to stock and parted out. I made all of my money back that I paid out in mods, and most of them were on the car for two years or more.

Keep the intake for sure and maybe sell the mufflers. Is there a craigslist for the area where you live? It's free to list stuff for sale and I'd try that before throwing the mufflers away.
