Muffler delete kit?

I'm looking to do a new exhaust setup with minimal fab work and money. I want to get rid of the junk crossflow flowmaster muffler on the car with some type of muffler delete and add a single bullet further up the exhaust system. Is there anyone that offers a muffler delete of any kind for a 4th gen fbody?

My car came that way when I bought it, so I'm not sure how it was done exactly, but a piece of straight pipe was clamped in where the stock muffler was. Then a bullet muffler welded into the I-section of the y-pipe. Call places like Texas Speed and see what they say

Cutouts? I'm not sure if there is a street legal delete kit out there. Cutouts are a good way around this.

Sounds like you want a loudmouth-type setup.

Not sure where you are located, but I have a used LM 1 resonator if you're interested

I'm in MS. Do you have the system or just the resonator?

A piece of straight pipe welded in place where the muffler used to be plus resonater in the merge pipe is a cheap solution. I've even heard of guys putting the straight pipe through the muffler to fool inspectors, if you have to deal with that kind of thing. Just my .02
