Exaust
Ok I have a stock rebuilt 390, 250 73 truck. Right now I have a homemade exaust on it that leaks and goes down to like an inch in one spot where they broke it and welded it back together. I am going to get dual exaust with glasspacks, and I am wondering what size all of you think would be best for me. I want it to have the most power and sound pretty good. I use it as an everyday truck take it to school, use it for work, take it to the mountains and sometimes pull 8000 to 10000 pounds. What would be the best size, 2in, 2.5 3? thank you

I would go with 2-1/2" pipe because unless it has mandrel bends, it will neck down to a smaller size at every bend.
For glass packs, I would go with the Thrush brand because they have a perforated core instead of a louvered core like a lot of others. Adjust the length to the sound you want. Longer equals quieter.
