The bestest exhaust kit is the one you weld together. Go with 2.25-inch mandrel bent tubing on a 351M and 2.5-inch tubing on a 400.
Mufflers? They're too object and there are soooo many opinions so let your budget and your homework guide what you buy and install.
Me? I chose Moroso Spiral Flows because they have no internal moving parts (Dynomax VT) and no fiberglass packing to crumble and degrade (glasspacks). With a 4x4, opt for fully welded mufflers like Flowmasters or even Summit's house-branded Flowmaster clones.
Either way, the engine will benefit most if they support long tube headers.

Well what I have always done, with any car I put exhaust on, is buy the mufflers you want(if you want mufflers) and tell the muffler shop exactly what you want. They can usually produce what you are looking for if they are half-competent.

then you are going to the wrong shop. My local guy carries several brands of mufflers and will make anything you want/need at a reasonable price.

Here is a kit that might work. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/ho...rd/model/f-150
I ended up welding up my own mid pipes out of cut mandrel bends then just brought it up to a local muffler shop and had him run the rest using Walker QuietFlow SS mufflers. They aren't very loud but Im not looking to prove anything. The cam gives it a little rumble and you hear it when you romp it but you can still have a conversation on the highway and around town.

Don't know why people want "KITS" for stuff they should be doing themselves...
Reminds me of a "bike" show where this loudmouth star of the show was gonna build an "Old School" panhead. Instead of finding a basket case and swap meet parts, rebuilding it himself, etc,...he goes to a bike Wally World and buys new off the shelf parts from the frame up. Back in the day, people would have been shot for doing that. Never watched that show again.
Call yourself a motorhead, do you?

Heck, some in here apparently don't even know how to use Google to find the most mundane information like decoding a VIN or the data plate. I post the link for them to look it up themselves because I subscribe to:
