Default Requesting video of mufflers directly off of L/T collector.

What the title says. I will be running that set up and I just want to see what all is out there to get some ideas. I went to LS1sounds.com but could find anything like that. Thanks in advance.

Here is my old setup with 1 3/4" Pacesetters into about 16" of pipe then into Dynomax bullets. It ends under the front seats. I've switched to 1 7/8" Kooks and one chamber Flowmasters

Your care is absolutely BAD ***!!! I'm about to do my head/cam swap and am going to do some piping off the collector into a Dynomax bullet. I'm assuming the shorter the piping, the louder, correct?

I would think it's gonna be a little louder straight off the collector. I've been driving my car like that for almost three years now and haven't had a problem with the cops. Everyone that heard the car in person said it sounded like an old school big block car. Hell it sounds even better with the one chambers


Here is a short video of it at the track with the bullets, it's hard to hear because of the generator in the background

What about it sounds better with the 1 chambers? Deeper? Quieter? I wanna put the least restrictive exhaust on it that I can without gettin pulled over. Also do you have 3 point sub frame connectors? Im worried that its gonna be a tight fit trying to put that bullet muffler of the collector because the sfc is gonna be in the way. What do you think?

I don't have SFC's on my car yet, you might run into a problem. If the guy doing the muffler work knows what he is doing it can be made to clear. Mine tucked real tight to the floor and I used a bolt from the trans crossmember to mount the hanger. This way I didn't have to cut the exhaust to pull it out. The one chambers are both deeper and quieter. I just wish I would have got a video before I pulled the motor out.

Yeah me too haha. From what I can gather the 1 chambers are shorter than the bullets so I might just go with those. I have very limited space here...... I will measure and see what I can and cant do. Is it necessary to have some pipe and then the muffler or can I just weld mufflers directly on the collectors?

If you want it to tuck tight, you are gonna have to run some pipe
