I put a glasspack in the '92. Don't know what brand it is, it was something the muffler shop provided. Cost $35 for the pack and $50 to put it on. I like it, a nice power rumble, not too loud unless you want it to be then you just open up the throttle. Way better than the stock muffler.

Thanks Chevy_eater, I jus bought a flowtech red hot, how long is yours? Mines 24 inches, the muffler shop wanted 50 for the muffler and 60 for the whole install, got mine for 20.

Ok guys i finally put it on!! Seein how im broke and all and my parents quit puttin money into my truck uhh the day i got it, i had to clean my truck completely out to find the money for the clamps...i know pathetic but yah spent all my money on the truck n diesel n i lost my job so yah gotta make do. The muffler sounds great, quiet at idle, deep tone, and that loud sound i love when u punch it! It also sounds great down shifting. I had a buddy tell me once that if you get ur glasspack hot enough and shove a water hose up in it itll crack the packing and itll blow out, is this true? Not planning on tryin it im just curious if its just a myth or not.
