Glasspack Questions.

On my '76 F250 SC w/ C6 and 460 there are 2 3-4 foot long GP's. Dual all the way with no cat's.
Question 1 is do GP's create more condensation then normal mufflers? When my truck is idling, there is a fair amount of condensation splatter but after a short drive it's gone. It's clear and has no odor.
Question 2 is do GP's make the truck pop on deceleration on a down hill with no throttle and around 3k rpm's? It's not backfiring but sounds like small firecrackers are being tossed out the tailpipe?
Thanks

I'm not sure about your first question, I have ran gp's on 4 cylinders b4 havent had a problem....

on your 2nd question, yes gp's will sound like that anytime you let off the gas and let it coast....or downshift too soon....

The sound is normal(any free flowing exhaust will do that, some more noticeable then others) and the condensation in the exhaust is also normal. 460s seem to have that fairly bad.
