Re: good sound for my 307
You're not going to have good sound with "A" glasspack.Most single exhuast will be louder but not what I think you're expecting.You should consider a dual exhuast.The sound you get will be as much from an exhuast system as the engine but without duals and more particulars we can't help much.

Re: good sound for my 307
Dual exhaust, chambered mufflers, mild cam, 9.5-1 compression and any of the generals small blocks will sound great, and run pretty decent too.

Re: good sound for my 307
If it runs well it sounds good, just ask anyone with a longterm project.

Re: good sound for my 307
You will have to run a full dual exhaust system with glasspacks to get the best sound. And as said even the smallest of Chevy V8s sound great with a dual setup. Of course there will be those who say some other muffler sounds better. Everybody has their favorite. I share your choice of gp sound preference.
