I've run an 82 300 with a Flowmaster 40 no cat. It sounded ok, but definitely not the deep V8 sound...higher pitched, faster idle.

I'm running Ford EFI Manifold, Magnaflow hi flow cat, and Flowmaster 50 series. I think it sounds good.

I've heard the flowmaster 44 sounds good, so you should be happy with the results.
