new exhaust**sound clip/video added
After lowering my truck the exhaust was banging on the frame and rear axle. Very annoying.
Took it to a local expert and hotrodder. He worked magic on it. He used Magnaflow mufflers and the sound is perfect. Dave Last edited by dmwphoto; 11-30-2010 at 01:32 PM. Reason: added video with sound |

Re: new exhaust
What I see looks good From a few yrs in the muffler shop with a veteran of 45 yrs.....spray the pipes with some cheap paint(from the headers back, or bottom of the 1 st bend back a couple ft. Take her out for a couple full throttle runs, & look see where the paint stops burning. This will be the optimum spot to add the H pipe. It will tame the loud just a tad, but will have a sweeter(cleaner)sound. This will also help with low/mid tork(without hurting top end power). have fun, crazyAl

Re: new exhaust
Got a sound clip or video? I've been thinking about having my exhaust redone and using magnaflows on mine.

Re: new exhaust
Not sure how to do the video thing but I will try and figure it out. That would be a great way to share this.

Re: new exhaust
Sounds good! I have flow 40's right now but am considering magnaflows. What engine are you running, and is it stock or built?

Re: new exhaust
Is it a small block?
Just noticed the Tahoe in the background, now you need a magnaflow on it, I have one on my Tahoe and it sounds great.

Re: new exhaust
yes it is a 350/290 crate engine. The tahoe is my company car, I'm guessing they may want me to leave it alone....
