300 Inline Six Sound
Do any of you guys know how to make a 300 Inline Six sound good? I don't want it to sound like them s***** sounding ricers that drive around. I want it to sound really good and manly. I've heard one with no muffler and it sounded pretty good. Do any of you guys have mufflers on yours that sound good? If you have a video link could you post it?
Thanks

What headers are the best in y'all's opinion for these 300s? It's like every video I watch on exhaust sounds people have replaced the headers.

People either get hedman headers but efi manifold are like shorty headers but without the leaks and excessive under the hood heat.

Electronic fuel injection.
Just my $0.02 but my old truck had a built 300 with headers, dual 2.5" pipes and turbo mufflers. It sounded good until you got up in the RPM range(4K) and then it just sounded "ricey". My crew has a stock 300 with the mainfold and a 2" straight pipe, and it just sounds like a truck who's muffler fell off.
I think my old setup with some 3" tips would have made it sound a little more mellow.
