Looks like a Flowmaster knock off. Why don't throw in an extra $20 a piece and get Hooker Aero Chambers?

IMCO baffled mufflers

IMCO makes some flowmaster knock offs----I think sound BETTER and are about $40-50 a piece for the 2.5 in and out......I put some on my 84 with headers and cam...LOVE "em, they sound somehow, a bit meatier and less tinny as the FM's can sound.....got 'em from my local auto repar shop.....here is their website:

I ordered 4 of those mufflers about two months ago. They are VERY good quality. They are EXACTLY like a flowmaster except that it doesn't have the word flowmaster stamped into it. I put one on my Jeep, and it sounds GREAT. It's been under there for two months and still isn't rusty. Previous to that muffler, I had a $25 turbo muffler that had only been there a month, and was already rusty and starting to leak around the inlet. I'm going to put two of them on my truck if I ever get around to it...I'm sure they'll sound really great with the 454.
