glasspack vs. flow

hello. as some of you know... i just swapped a 302 in my 83 f-100 stepside. it is a stong motor but just doesnt seem loud enough. all i have is the collector y pipe and then a 24"glasspack, no cat. i have a flowmaster 40 si/do that would be piped out the back...would this be a louder set up? the glasspack sounds good but i want more power so the flow seems like the way to go...any ideas???

straight pipe roar is the way to go. if you want it louder dump water into your glasspack and and pound on it to settle all the fibers and junk in there and it will make it louder b/c it wont abosrb aS much sound and if you dont like that slap the 40 on there

It depends though on how long your flowmaster 40 is too. Do these even come in different lengths? Your flowmaster may be louder if its shorter.

You arent gonna get much louder than a glasspack unless you run dual glasspacks or dual straight pipes
