I HATED the Banks muffler. It sounds terrible on a V10. I swaped that out for a Flowmaster 70 series. MUCH better. I had to modify the Banks pipes for the Flowmaster to work. It came out decent.
The Banks kits pays off with towing and higher rpm's. Anything above 3K rpm and the truck just screams.
One draw back to stainless headers is how thin the steel is. You always can hear the exhaust pulses rushing through the pipe while the engine is under load. It kinda sounds like a exhaust leak but there is now leak. That is why the old cast iron manifold were just that....cast iron for durability and shhhh....quiet.

Very nice. I kept the manifolds and did dual 2.5 pipe with x2 40series delta flow and spiral flow mufflers. It was just the flowmasters but above 2k rpm it sounded like a the ultra mega ricer from Hell so I added the spirals and I can't be happier about the sound now. haha.
