Hey all. Need everyones opinion. I have a 1994 F150 302 and I am shopping around for a new exhaust. How does the Flowmaster American Thunder system sound on this truck? Anyone have it? Let me know. Any other opinions are welcomed.

Bill

Like thunder with 4 wheels ? Deeeeep tone if your looking for something louder get the 40 series two chamber . I would go with the American thunder if you want to rumble the windshields off of the Chevies !!!!

Thanks for the reply. Would it sound better if I "lost " the second cat?

Yes it would sound a lot better. I just installed the flowmasters on my 95 302 and it sounds good but it's not loud enough at all. You can hear it with the windows down and the radio low but when you close the windows and put the radio on a normal level you can barely hear it. I wrote a tech article on the installation and my thoughts, gave it to Ken, so keep an eye out.


Primary rig is Green Thunder:
95' F-150 XLT 4x4, 302, 5 spd, MSD 6A, Flowmaster American Thunder Exhaust, Sunroof, Clear corners w/ Diamond headlights, CD player with 2 10" subs and some 32" BFG Muds .

Check out my Gallery for a look-see.


Then theres:
99' Mustang GT 4.6L
88' F-250 Superduty 4x4 351/c6
95' Mercury Cougar 4.6L V-8
80' E-350 300/6 with a
3 spd column shifter. Top speed is 65mph, Go Baby Go!

Mustang, do you think you could email a copy of that? I would greatly appreciate it.

Sure, e-mail me at GreenThunder2195(No Email Addresses In Posts!) and I'll send it to you. It has pictures too. I don't think Ken is going to use it, or he's really busy and hasn't put it up yet.
