Exhaust help need opinions
Have an 85 Silverado 4X4 need some opinions on how to run my exhaust. It has passed inspection so i got my tags and I wanna run a nice exhaust. I have 50 flowmasters on a 1972 suburban and that isn't what I want for this truck. Duals? Mufflers? Pipe Size? CATS? Where to dump the exhust? Tips?
I want it loud with a deep tone but nothing too obnoxious or a loud resonate in the cab Heres a pic of the truck Last edited by 402BigBlockSUB; 09-09-2009 at 08:59 PM. |

Re: Exhaust help need opinions

Re: Exhaust help need opinions
If you want a nice, deep, idle tone, run this.
This is what I have: Stock manifolds 2.25" from manifolds to mufflers 18" Long Cherry Bomb Glasspacks 2" Tailpipes ran straight out the back I have a video of it somewhere. I'll find it and post it for ya.

Re: Exhaust help need opinions
I would say Super 40's but they do have some interior drone. You can go to the flowmaster website or any others and check out what they sound like.

Re: Exhaust help need opinions
I like the Magnaflows I have. They sound awesome at idle and there is no resonance whatsoever in the cab.
