I'd go with the super 44's. I only went with 40s because I could get them cheap at the time.

Super 44's were quieter and deeper than the 40's I had prior. The super 10's i have now are loud when you stomp it but they sound awesome.

Hi guys this is my first post. I've had 40s series on a couple of fords now and I love the sound and quality of them. Can't go wrong either way.

It really depends on the sound you're after. I had many compliments on sound they produced on my '97. When the factory muffler gives out on my '08 I'll go the same route. My '77 has dual stainless magna flows. I went this way after researching other users experience with the durability of the stainless between flow master and magna flow.

Try a You Tube search for exhaust sound. It may give you a better idea of they'll sound like on your truck.

Good luck.

I had a super 44 on my 5.4 06. It sounded great but it rusted out in like 3 years. I am now hooked on Thrush. I have one on my 86 with a 460. It sounds way cool with a big block. Especially under a hard pull. I just put 2 on my 78 Scout. They have a nice deep tone and were like 33 bucks apiece. JMHO
