Need info quickly re: muffler size

I want to replace the muffler on my truck and I have searched this site over for info. Most people talk about getting a Flowmaster 40 series, but no one mentions a part # for it. Also, I am away from my truck so I don't know what the inlet/outlet arrangements are, what length it is, etc. If someone can help me out ASAP I'd appreciate it! I want to get a muffer on my way home to my truck.

Thanks!
Chad


PS - I cross-posted this to the exhaust forum b/c I only have about one more hour!

3" in and out.

Depending on the muffler size you get you can get a center in and out. That is what stock is.

My FM 40 was a center in / offset out. If I remember correctly.

The stock one is HUGE! Almost 2 feet in length. I do not believe that there are any wanted aftermarket mufflers as large as the stock unit.

Get what you like. You'll have to more than likely get a extension pipe welded on.

Let us knwo what you get!

Thanks for your help! I actually work for Holley Performance Products, and I'm at our Hooker facility for a little while longer today. The problem is, we don't have any application information for the V10 setup. I am going to use a Hooker Aerochamber, probably the 21506HKR (14" long, center in/out 3"). We have a 22" long one that is offset in, center out but if it's center in/out like you say then I will have to use the shorter one.

Thanks for your help!

I bought a standard 3" single inlet, dual 2 1/2" outlet Flowmaster 40 series off e-bay for $29.00, there were tons of new FM 40's on there.
