Truck looks great ! There are still a few old timers around who look down their noses at "trucks" --- i think it is an aversion to something that is made to work or something
i have some customers like that in my business --- they may have 2 E-class Merc's in their nice garage, but have to have delivery from home depot - or rent a truck --- worthless

The goofy 4 door guy doesnt realize your truck is worth more than his car either ---

I hope the bombs work out for ya --- i couldn't deal with the noise myself unless the truck were strictly a bar-hopper or car show cruiser

Not saying I don't like loud exhaust, just not a huge fan of cackleing exhaust.

Wow, that's pretty harsh.

That's exactly what I was thinking... I'd take a 67-72 swb truck over a 4 door '57 ANY day.

I see blue and red lights in your future..I had a set of glasspacks before.

Nice truck BTW. I hope your neighbors "appreciate" as much as I do.

Mayo · 10-24-2011, 06:14 PM

I might have to get a set of them for my 37 Chevy truck when I finish that thing.

prostreetC-10 · 10-24-2011, 10:02 PM

Man oh man.......I am in my garage as we speak building an exhaust with an X pipe and flowmaster 40s. I am pulling off what you are putting on. You might not but I came to realize that there is a point where it is just TOO LOUD and doesn't sound good anymore. No since in video taping it. Most home cameras don't have the correct filter to pick of the noise correctly and it will just sound distorted.

I think what you really need to do is tape a 100 yrd burnout!!!!!

**RenoKeene** · 10-24-2011, 10:37 PM

Just to clarify....these are for when I WANT it to be loud. I've got a magnaflow setup for everyday driving, takes about 10 min. to swap out.
And check out my posts in this thread....I know all about LOUD.
Thanks for all your comments.

And for all you folks in Georgia....I'll apologise ahead of time for when I fire this up.
Goodnight....from Central Florida.

Yea...check my profile pic. They turn they're nose up at me again I'll load my stepper on "Mad Max", my 67 slant back and invade their little party in a BIG way. I would love to be escorted out with a blue light parade!

BTW I love you guys....thanks for the support! And we will be filming this!!!

It's called mental HP

This is gonna be EPIC!!!

MudBug · 10-25-2011, 09:28 AM

Loud is a full tilt dirt modified or Late model motor with straight fenderwell headers turning 7500 at the top end of the straightaway.

50bomb · 10-25-2011, 09:38 AM

Well you can't show us pictures and say its gonna be loud unless you prove it with a little Video

50bomb...should be lighting the fuse in a couple more weeks.

a_barth · 10-26-2011, 11:29 AM

I,ll let you know if we hear it.

Rochlow · 10-26-2011, 11:33 AM

I have dual exhaust with two 18" glasspacks from AP exhaust.. Yup, it's going to be loud!

69 gmc · 11-16-2011, 11:57 AM

Any progress?

**RenoKeene** · 11-16-2011, 12:03 PM

Haven't lit the fuse yet..been waiting on parts. Pretty soon though.

prostreetC-10 · 11-16-2011, 12:20 PM

Well I finally got to drive the Camaro down the street last night. It was a quick trip but man what a difference from the header packs. Much more quiet at idle but still a very deep, powerful note. When you start to roll into it though......It sounds freaking wicked. Granted, it's a shorter exhaust than what would be ran on a truck but I have re-sold myself that it's only Flowmaster 40's for me (and the X pipe is well worth it).

Yes, that is a home made system too!

domeier · 11-16-2011, 12:51 PM

What's the purpose of the X pipe?

prostreetC-10 · 11-16-2011, 05:02 PM

Sound...... balance........ scavenging........ sound......etc.

Do the Cherry Bombs come straight off the headers?
