Lets see that exhaust!

Ok. I have a 4bbl 350 with true duals already ran... 1 converter & glasspack per side. I dont need to pass an Echeck and I like loud sh*t. I need headers back. I'm thinking super 44's no converters, wrapped headman headers...Should I keep a high flow converter for the back pressure or is that not neccessary? Nothing too expensive this isnt a show truck its just a nice daily driver. Whos got opinions or ideas? Anything helps. Post some pics if you got'm!

Thanks!

Re: Lets see that exhaust!

^^^^^^I say that video doesn't give the actual sound and loudness of his truck he is running 2 1/2" compared to my 2 1/4"

my 76 has 2 1/4" true duals with turbos(brand unknown) no cats exiting before the rear wheel on each side running manifolds and it is really loud my grandpa complains when he thinks I'm revving it to high and I just tapped the accelerator I also have fun setting off my dads car alarm

Aren't Super 10's only for racing applications?

Re: Lets see that exhaust!

Yeah, it's probably the camera. It's just right at the rear axles. We haven't put the rest of the tailpipe on it. Due to where we're living we had to get the bed back on. But it's definately loud. We cranked it today and I couldn't hear the tv inside lol.

Re: Lets see that exhaust!

These are lookin pretty good. I'm thinkin I'll cut out before the wheels. That hump over the axle is just more bends to F with the flow...Is it better to rock an X or H pipe as opposed to true duals?

Re: Lets see that exhaust!

I like the raspy sound of those Thrush welded mufflers!

My next setup, after installing some long tubes, will be the x pipe kit from 73-87chevytrucks.com Even comes with the Pypes mufflers which from what I've witnessed on youtube, sound amazing.

that wrap will cause your headers to rot/rust out on a daily driver. I had it on one of my S10's, bout yr later while change'n plugs the header's just crumble'd every where I touched em . that same truck has shorty headers, 2.5 pipe and 40 series Flow masters that dump just befor the rear axle. sounds really good.
