A little disappointing....
It has a loud spot right between 2700-3200 rpm. It changes tone and has a popping sound, then it smooths out again. Is that normal?
I do like it but I'd have done Cherry Bombs. They're a tad mellower than your Thrush's. Sounds old school to me. Especially since I put a Thrush on my Dad's 63 Impala SS (283 P.G) when I was 16. I 1st thought of Pace Setter tips when I read you were not happy. Resonators built in. They are here in town out west somewhere. But they are only straight.
Your Eddy carb is too lean when it's transitioning from one circuit to another. That's why tone changes and it pops. Which makes perfect sense. Adding headers and free flowing exhaust always needs a richer set up in the carb.

And here's the new system.

My drag strip times and weights come out slow for putting out 350hp. Times and weight suggests 200 hp at the wheels. And I have a hard time believing I'm loosing 150hp through the drivetrain..... I don't think I'm really making 350. Even if DD5 says I should be.
We'll go with the lower number and say 20%. IF the engine is making 350HP at the crank, with 20% drivetrain losses, you would net 280HP at the rear wheels.
I ran a consistent 15.9-16.0 @ 83. Figuring a 4300lb race weight, that suggests 200hp.
