Default S10 5.3 video

Getting really close just got the exhaust put on, flowmaster 40 series 2.5 dual in dual out. Have to finish the shifter move my trans cooler and clean up a few wires in the engine compartment should be ready for a test drive this week can't wait. I need to mess with the timing and carb tuning also. May have some questions on that later. I did run it around the trans is not wired up yet so defaulted to 2nd gear but I can tell it gonna be fun it will still bust the tires loose in second just messing around.

Sounds like blowmasters. Lol not bad. I don't like them on LS motors for some reason.

i like the flowmaster sound on just about all v8 engines. it's plenty muffler for a 5.3 with a good header. I pipe setup. i'm not wild about the performance once you go 5.7+CI

Don't let them get under your skin about the FM's....I dropped my full exhaust from the collectors back and gained about .15....probably from the weight ?

Sounds about right, seen several cars gain HP from removing a blowmaster and going to other muffler systems. Especially straight through design like the flowmaster outlaw and bullets.

If I was not on a budget and looking for more hp I might have went a different route, I really don't think this little truck needs any more power right now lol. I've been to busy to get it finished up and it's killing me hopefully I can get the shifter done tomorrow
