I have a 67 Chevelle Malibu with a 383 stroker engine, 625 Carter AFB Competition Carb, Headers. I am thinking of changing exhaust system. Somewhat confusing. I want something loud, but not obnoxious.
I have heard the following:
- 2.5 inch pipes throughout with either Flowmaster 40 or Flowmaster 50 Series, or Dynomax mufflers.
- Use a Dr. X crosspipe.
- Have the pipes exit the rear bumpers.
Question 1: Go with a 2.5 inch or 2.25 inch pipe ?
Question 2: Does crosspipe quiet the sound or what else does it do ? Have a 3 inch piper from headers into crosspiper with 2.5 to mufflers, etc ?
Question 3: Should rear pipes exit bumper or turn out past the rear tires ?
Again, I want it loud, but not a cherry bomb obnoxious loud, and not a police pullover loud. But not a Walker muffler no noise sound either.
Purpose of vehicle: A driver/cruiser. It won't be raced.
Thanks,
Ken McDee
