Muffler Replacement - Stock?

[Ironhorse]

Tahoe has a new sound today, a Walker Quiet-flow SS made such a difference, no more irritating drone ! Walker 21289 and a bit of re-work of the existing exhaust connections and Tahoe has a much more smooth and quieter tone. Thanks 95_S Trucker for supplying the Walker 2 dr or 4 dr numbers. That was a huge help. As I've mentioned many times before when asking board members for parts, fit and use questions, I appreciate and value real world members experience with parts to steer one in the right direction.

i've been in the same muffler shop for going on 40 years now and i've done everything from stock sound to obnoxious and seems like the older i get the quieter i like my vehicles. the sound that annoys me most are the little 4 banger ricers, sounds like somebody farting in a tin can . i've always said there's a "good loud" and then there's a "bad loud" on a vehicle but we have to do what the customer wants. glad you're happy with yours.

Jerry, quite satisfied with the sound on the Tahoe now, before, not so much. I also like a bit of a good growl with exhaust but more so on my toys. I run old school Thrush mufflers thru full length dual exhaust on my '57 with headers. Nice mellow rumble at cruise but they will "talk" to you when you get on it.

Run Thrush Turbos thru dual full length 2 1/2'' pipes on my '71 Chevelle. Again a nice low rumble cruising but a decent growl when you stomp the GO pedal.

something i forgot to add earlier, if you want good flow without the drone and noise, the flowmaster 70 series big block is the way to go. my dad wanted the look of duals on his 02 silverado with the 5.3 but no excess noise so i used the 70 series big block , 3 inch single inlet with dual 2 1/2 outlets straight out the back with 3 inch stainless steel tips and he loves it-by the way he's 93 years old and hates noisey exhaust.
