i cant decide wheather to put on a flowmaster or glasspacks on my truck.
its an 86 f-150 with a 302efi

 

What kind of sound do you want?the sound of a mustang or a real truck? LOL, just kidding, I would try the cheap one first the if you don't like it after a couple weeks go with the other.

 

i would prefer a loud truck but not overecessive. something that has a low grumble at idle and then lets people know when your coming down the road

 

single 3" with a Magnaflow would do that pretty well. Have a look on thier site and see what length you like. Around a 24" body length is usually pretty deep, also the longer the muffler the more mellow it becomes. They probly have a sound clip of you truck or close to it. you could also add a high flow cat, I found out Ractive(I think) makes a really good one and the price is comparable to the Magnaflow/Carsound cat. Also check out www.goravin.com, they have a clip of thier mufflers on a 302 ford, as well as mustangs etc. The Tahoe should be the one that has a Ravin Z-77 and I think the Ford pickup has the 55 series.

 

the glasspack is hella cheaper, and it makes a sicker sound i think. i love the pops and different noises it makes on my 351M, plus it cost less than 20 bucks at the pep boys. to me, it sounds more like a sick, twisted large horsepower and cubic inch engine than just a regular muffled engine. its the next best thing to straight piped, you cant see straight through a conventional muffler.

 

do you have any soundclips?

 

Have a look see at exhaustsoundclips.com, they have lots of clips of glasspacks.
