Re: Your opinion on mufflers for 86 350?
Spintech's sound great and have a much better reputation for flow than flowmasters do. The sportsman series are comparible in sound to 40 series flows but don't have the "tinny" sound associated with flowmasters.
Everyone is going to have an opinion on this though so you will just have to pick one and go for it. My friend has a very hot 350 in his truck and is running 40 series flows and it sounds really mean! I just don't like the "tinny" sound when he gooses it.
I went back and forth on this as I am building a motor for my truck right now and will be doing exhaust soon. On the one hand I knew how good my buddies truck sounded but also knew I wasn't crazy about the WOT sound. One the other hand I found these fairly new Spintech mufflers that everyone that has tried them seems to be raving about them. I have never actually heard them in person just on Youtube. They sound incredible though and have awesome reviews. I decided to take a chance on them. I personally went with The Prostreet 6000 series Spintech which I am guessing is comparable in volume to a 1 chamber flowmaster. The Prostreets are very small mufflers only measureing 4"x6"x12". As I said earlier the Sportsman series may be more up your alley. Good luck man!
