Non-Ford Muffler Question

95 YJ, 2.5L MPI 4-popper.

Stock manifold & down pipe.

Custom high-flow (read: hammered out) cat.

Currently has a rusted out OE muffler on it.

I found a 2.25" I/O Flowmaster 40 in my garage left over from a previous vehicle.

(It was on it and run for a coupla weeks then pulled off, stuck on a shelf and forgotten about.)

You guys think that would be "too much" for the little motor?

Thanks.

It will be fine 2.5 is half of 5.0 and two 2.25s is a pretty good set up on a 5.0L. It will sound like a bumble bee though.
