Thursday on the way to work one of the old hangers broke and the pipe on the drivers side hit the pavement at 40 MPH. It's beyond repair so now I'm forced to put new exhaust on it. I just can't figure out what route to go I'd like to keep the duals but would be open to a 2 in to 1 and run a single pipe out the back under the bumper.
I want the truck to sound like a truck but now be over powering loud. I am leaning to a toned down glass pack but think a good performance muffler might be better. I don't care for Flowmasters as much as I did 15 years ago. The Magnaflow that I had on my '88 Blazer had a good sound and I think that might be a good way to go this time. I also really liked the MBRP system I had on my '05 Colorado Off road truck but the guy I sold the truck to said the muffler had to be replaced shortly after I sold it to him. The muffler would have been less than 3 years old at that point.
truck has a 283 V8 I really don't want to dump it under the bed I would like to run it out the back under the bumper or sides behind the rear tire
What are you guys running and what do you recommend? You guys know these trucks better than I

I've been thinking about this lately. My '65 K10 has a 400 small block with ram's horns and 2 1/2" duals that end at the mufflers (another partially completed project by the P.O.). Since none of that is actually bolted together, I'm thinking of ditching the duals and going with a y-pipe and a 3" single exhaust with a 3-chamber Flowmaster that dumps out from the stock location under the driver's side rear fender. I might even through at cat in under there to clean up the exhaust a bit. Haven't decided yet.
