Flowmaster poll what do you like? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Super C10 · 01-08-2012, 01:06 PM

Hey Guys i have been a member on here for awhile now and wanted to collect your guys opinions. Im currently in school in wyoming and lookin to do some work to my old 72 super come may this year. This is what i got a 1987 chevy 350 with aftermarket cast iron ceterbolt heads, performer intake, edelbrock 600 cfm carb and hooker headers. I wanna do a complete exhaust on the truck in may from headers to the bumper. I was thinkin 2 and 1/2 inch true dual but dont have any idea on mufflers. I do like the sound of flowmasters tho, i kinda want a head turning exhaust. I will be thankful for any help with the exhaust guys so tell me what you have heard.

Thanks, Super C10

morning, I run headers into 2 1/2 straight to two chamber flowmasters.... they dump right down to the ground 3" after the outlet of the flows... sounds freaking awsome... I was going to run the exhaust all the way back to the bumper but when my buddy did his all the way back with same set up it really made his too quiet and he lost that rumble at stop lights and it didn't sound as good when he hammered it....but that is just my opinon...and there will be many different ones ...enjoy

Can you post a sound bite so we can hear your exhaust?

thanks

no exhaust smell in cab on mine..... just far enough back.... x2 on 40's 2 chamber

I've got Flowmaster Super 40's dumped out behind the tire. They sound sweet. I may never use a set of glass packs again.

85chevy383 · 01-08-2012, 05:05 PM

I think you will be happy with any flowmaster you choose, I had 2 chambers with 2 1/2" pipe previously and sounded good, this time I went with 3 chambers and 3" pipe and its a tough call on which sound I like better

I have 2 1/2 inch out the back with dual flowmaster super 44s and i love the sound. I would totally recommend them over a glass pack. A little more expensive but worth it.

CC69Rat · 01-08-2012, 06:02 PM

I went with Magnaflows on my BB truck, and I'm tellin ya.. Flow Masters sound good but Magnaflows are different enough to make people wonder what you have. Just my .02, Everyone has Flow Masters. I just wanted something different.

You owe it to yourself to check them out too. Nothing against Flowmaster, but, just sayin ..

crazy longhorn · 01-08-2012, 08:26 PM

I have 50's Flows on my longhorn(specs in my signature). I like them, but the Magnaflow on my 02 silverado really has the sound I like

I plan to put a pair of Magnaflows on the old truck. best of fun,crazyL

dukcaln · 01-08-2012, 11:59 PM

Goerlich Mufflers are the way to fly IMO.

Can't believe no one has has suggested the Super trapp disc system, that is a sound! ....kinda a pain to deal with but it does sound like a sprint car ;-)

just throwing it out there

10 series single chambers here. Probably a little louder then what you are wanting.

I have 3" all the way back with super 44"s on my 525hp 454 and I love the way it sounds but think I would like it a bit better dumping just past the diff.

lots of good ideas but it boils down to what you want to hear and what do you want for looks.....

AustinScott · 01-10-2012, 01:22 AM

I know this is a flow-master poll thread, & just to be fair if I went with flow-master I would go with the 44's

But I went with SPINTECH, they sound great & are built like a tank!
here are some video my son and I made with our flipcam.
