your thoughts on cherry bomb vortex's

I need a whole new exhaust on my 71 c10 its got a 305 in it. I was thinking about cherry bomb vortexs cuz they got the sound I want and I can just dump them after the muffler till I have more money to get the rest of the exhaust. I'm on a really tight buget and the vortex are only 80 bucks give or take which size I get. I was just wondering what yall thought of the vortex and if yall like them. Thanks.

Re: your thoughts on cherry bomb vortex's

80 bucks apiece? or for the pair.

Heck to get you started, if you're on that tight of a budget, you can get some cheap-o turbo mufflers from the parts store for about 25 bucks apiece. That's what I do with most of my rigs until I can afford the exhaust I want.

2 1/2 inch pipe from headers to a cheap-o turbo muffler, then about 6 inches more pipe after that... lookin' at about 80 bucks total...

Once I save my nickles and dimes for the exhaust I want... then I splurge.

Re: your thoughts on cherry bomb vortex's

i've got those cherry bombs. I really like em and they have a good tone.
But just like gasonline71 i'm gonna get some different mufflers (flowmasters)when i got more cash. I know everybody wants flowmaster 40s, but after you hear em, you'll know why. LOL

I have enough to get the vortexs and I'm going to add on to them down the road more then likely. But ya 80 for one and I'm going with duals.
