Glasspack

Is there a major difference in the sound of a glasspack depending on its size?

Like if I got a 4 inch diameter body by 30 inch long body, would it sound different then a 5 inch diameter body by 8 inch long body?

Thanks
Jameson

So with a shorter/larger pack, there will be more of a crack when you rev, and longer/smaller pack will have a deeper rumble at idle?

Yeah its got 2-1. Side tank means i cant run duals, unless fender exit or both down pass. side. But for now itd just 2-1, and the 35" pack will fit exactly in the same place.

Yeah, I always like the longest glasspack I can fine that'll fit. Gives the best "Hotrod" sound IMO.
