i have a 1976 ford f100 with a 351m, if i install dual exhaust with glasspacks will it be loud enough to be annoying? i only want a good rumbling sound, not a very loud exhaust

Travis,

Can't really answer your question, still working on getting that "mustang Gt" sound from mine. Just don't want to go spending $ on stuff that won't help. I've got heddmans into 2.25 collectors, then (autozone) turbo 2 muffs, then out the sides. No H pipe, 2.25 all the way. I've got pronounced "popping" on light accel. It's slightly louder than I would like, but no so loud as to wake the neigbors. And almost silent once cruising speed is reached. I've read that adding "tips" will help reduce the popping sound and give a deeper rumble and am fixin to get to it, just would like some confirmation on expected results.

Any recomnedations for us guys?

TIA
Dart

My buddy has true dual with glasspacks on his dodge 360 and that thing is loud, but he is running 2 in. so that makes it louder. If your going for a low rumble go as big exhaust as you can, it also depends on what kind of glass packs you are using.
