Best Sounding Loud Exhaust
As I said in my previous thread, I need to get some exhaust on my truck. My engine is a 383, 10:1, Crower, rollers, hooker headers, ect. Its quite a engine with just under 400 hp. When I was a kid I had header mount cherry bombs on my 1970 Z28 with a similar motor. It sounded pretty cool, but I had some friends with similar rides with the muffllars mounted further back and their cars had more of a rap then mine did. I suspect it was the difference in the tail pipe lenth. Longer the tail pipe = less rap.
I want good rap on my truck. This thing is a toy and I don't want to deny the engine its right to live by making it quiet. My first thought was to install good old "glass packs" at the local exhause shop as they are really just a wide spot in the pipe anyways. I have looked at the expensive mufflars and I really don't see the benefit for a loud application.
Does anyone have unbiased first hand advise on a really cool loud sounding exhaust for a hod rod.
Thanks
Jason
