I've simply got headers coming off the 390....with simple Cherry bombs attached under the cab....and that's it! It's a little boomy in the cab...so it could probably use a slight extention to get the "bombs" under the bed a little more...looks like a pair of crazy rocket engines hanging under there......to make louder? Simple, remove cherry bombs....makes an ungodly sound.....I would like to hear just a straight engine without headers of any kind though, for comparison.

Here is a video of my truck with a 302 idling in the driveway. Its a quicktime video so it may take a minute to load but just wait on it. I love the way it sounds. I have full length headers, headman collector extensions, and 12" summit glass packs. http://media.putfile.com/100_016793

short pipes

I have the 50 series Flows exiting out the back, originally I had them coming out right behind the tires. Everyone says the exhaust sounds better the way it is now. My muffler guy says "the farther back the muff is installed, the louder it gets". I didnt like the "rapping/popping sound they made coming out the sides. I think having the pipes exiting closer together blends all those noise waves together better. Once I drove across town on just the headers to get a system put on. I revved it at the light and almost tipped a ricer over. Gotta love it. Can't beat a V-8 for exhaust noise.
