Sound questions..
Hey guys, Ive got a few questions.. Ive got an '85 F-150 with a 302.. I HAD a stock exhaust, but when I took it in for some other repairs, the mechanics told me and showed me where my muffler and pipes were rusted out and had holes, etc... they added a high flow cherry bomb muffler that split into two pipes..I noticed that the outlets were dual 3" out of the muffler, but reducers had been put on to reduce the pipe to 2.25" pipes.. small pipes.. and both pipes were run straight back.. well.. he said it'd add tone.. it does maybe 3500+ RPMs.. but I wanted that deep rumble.. I didnt get the tips on yet, so questions.. would the tips help the sound alot? And should I get resonators in the tips? If that won't help, what would? Replacing the pipes with 3" pipes? I dont really have too much money right now.. lots of bills and very little time to work in between classes, lucky I can still hold my job.. so the cheapest solution would be my best bet... 
Thanks alot guys!

Hey James,
You sound like me, going to school, working, and still trying to have time to play with stuff on the truck. I don't know a lot about the tips or anything but I would suggest talking with the local exhaust shop, describe to them the best you can what kind of sound you want out of your truck, and they should be able to actually point you in the right direction. Hope this helps some and goodluck.
