Exhaust Setup and Sounds

Well I got my exhaust put on today. True dual 2.5" off the headers into 2 FX Turbo Mufflers (made by Flowmaster), angled out the sides with stainless slash cut tips.

Revving

Mufflers

Crappy View of Tail Pipes

And to get some tech in this, front axle is still not working right.

I have the same exact set up on my 74 390 minus the tips. I really like the way it looks and sounds also i was told a while ago i would see better performance if i put in an h pipe to "equalize" the exhaust, I don't think you have an h pipe either going by the picture? Just wondering if that last satement has any valditity. Lovin the way urs sounds though

An H pipe will help the overall performance out, but it comes at the cost of loosing sound. So you have to decide whether or not performance or sound is your main priority.

It sounds really good. Your one video doesn't do the open headers justice. They are just obnoxious, but the system looks and sounds great.

Ya the vid with the open headers was when the motor was still out of whack. It had sat for 2 years and needed some finessing to get it dialed in again.
