Let's talk exhausts.

I guess the next project is to make Betsy sound better. My exhaust pipes are showing alot of rust. I was reading thru some of the past threads here and I'm kinda confused and have some questions.

1) With my older engine, will a new exhaust sound good?

2) I want to have the dual exhaust exit out under the rear bumper, that won't be a problem, right? The shop can just go straight back instead of the stock exit's behind the rear wheels?

3) Do I need a X or H pipe modification done?

4) Should I have everything welded in?

5) Now the age old question: Which exhaust? I had Magnaflows on my Dodge 1500, loved the sound of them. I don't want Flowmasters. LMC sells a Magnaflow kit for $579, price will be more with oversize shipping. I don't want to spend that much. Some previous threads suggested going to an exhaust shop and having them make one for me. I want a nice deep ruble, I don't want to have a headache from the exhaust

6) Any other suggestions I would appreciate.
