want a good sounding muffler, try to find an old oval muffler off of a 60s GM. most of them are well blown out and really have a deep rumble.I through out a set of flowmasters and replaced them old ovals and a set of cut outs on my old El Camino.that way you can be loud or ear busting loud!

I wonder if those hedders would fit my 302 in lets say....
A mustang with an "improved" frame (from a blazer) with a straight drive and 4 wheel drive?
The frame started life as a cheb, but shall finish as a ford..lol

with only a difference of .2 of an inch, its a perfect fit.

not the 65 truck, its an 82 mustang subframe project.

Gona build a monster mustang on a budget(i hope..lol).
NCfirefighter has a frame from a ch**y blazer that has the perfect wheelbase length for my stang. I also have a biult 302 with trickflow heads and all that good stuff on.. That frame has a borg-wagner trans and I should be able to bolt a ford bell housing to it so the 302 will hook to it. if all this happens, I will end up having a jacked up 82 mustang 4WD.
I will probably have to build custom hedders for it, but who knows...lol
