Open Exhaust

Hey everyone, so I just bought and installed a exhaust cutout.
It wasnt expensive so Id thought i'd try it out. It sounds soooo deep now its crazy. I have a Super 44 flowmaster muffler on there but with it open its not that loud that I cant run it open all the time. I still have the cat on for more backpressure and so I dont go blowin a valve like people have been saying. Anyone else try this and have the same results? I do wish it was louder but hey what can you do haha.

The back pressure myth lives on even though the likes of David Vizard and others debunked it years ago.

I'm into the hub caps. Can you hook me up? I think they're on 15 inch rims? I got some orig steel rims I'd put some time into if I could get THOSE to clip in!!

You can get them here for not too bad a price, or at least a type similar.


I like the paint on your truck. It's fun seeing what mine would look like if it weren't all beat up.

Yes, sure looks nice but I could never do it. Get too sktatched up in the woods, daily trials n tribs of the work a day world. If they wrked (don't look it, hafta get the whole wheel) it would B the only chrome on the rig.
The 1st yr - '66, they had something like that but the (it wuz a hubcap) look wuz w/a whole lotta 'steps' on it. The summit page looks like the ol' Moonies'. A big 'dish'. Not concentric circles w/a step up to (what - 3 -4 of em?) to the next rim/level. Still it's a whole wheel n $65 a piece.

Hey, Hollywood! (your new name).
That's quite a 'production' - music, credits etc. Nice.
