ima going to do it..... maby?

my plan is to cut one cat off, and gut the other put a flowmaster 40 series on and would like to go with the 3"in and dual 3" out and exit with two tips just in front of the right rear tire,my question is dose flowmaster make this muffler in the 40 series? and also anyone else running this setup on a f-150 w/302 i know its hard to make a 302 rumble but the tips this close to the muffler should help..right?
...thanks in advance...

I'm running a single 3" pipe to a 40-series Flowmaster and out duel 2.5" pipes. With the rear cat intact, I was very dissapointed in the way it sounded. So, I punched out the rear cat but left the front one alone. Without the rear cat it sounds much better but still not as deep and rumbly as I'd hoped. Guess maybe I'm asking too much from a 302. Can't say as I can see much, if any, differance performance wise, so I'll probably put a free-flow cat system on it in the spring...I'd rather be legal. I'm being told a glass-pack might give us the sound we're looking for, but I guess I'll have to wait till this Flowmaster disentigrates. For what it's worth, my pride and joy is a 93 F-150 w/302 E4OD, 4X4. Good luck.
