anyone who has heard an LS1 with duals/10 series flows will say they sound better, or they have had the headphones with video games on too damn looooong.

Ummm, don't worry...They don't "choke" horsepower at all. It just amazes me to this very day that as soon as someone hear's the word Flowmaster they immediately think "chokemaster"

well i don't even care about the "flow" anymore. i'll get the single chambers and take out the rear floor mats to compensate for the hp loss for not goin with bullets. but the single chambers sound like champs.

Bullets are louder, 1 chambers sound better. ST's sound better than bullets too imo, but they have a very distinct tone that some like and others don't. The bullet will obviously flow better than any other muffler, but I don't think you'd lose more than 2-3 hp with the 1 chambers or ST's.

I have the One Chambers now & my car sounds better then a 5.0 with a cam.
Also I was running 7.533 in the 1/8 at 91.533 & ran this last weekend & ran the same times with no change in MPH on my traps in the 1/8th.
If you want to hear your cam & have a deep mean sound. GET THE ONE CHAMBER FLOWS,
Mine hit the ground on back country roads because they are dumped. But I don't mind, I get so many compliments on the way my car sounds. But most of all. I love the sound.
ALSO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE TRUE DUALS when you go to the ONE CHAMBER'S. I have the 3inh TSP Duals & dumped the Bullet mufflers & now have the Flows in their place.

Thanks a lot jmm98, you just accelerated my modding plans like two years! 
And I just bought a brand-new townhome too! Last edited by 2000LS1Z28; Aug 29, 2006 at 08:36 PM.

It'll sound great...promise!! My dumps are angled out ~35 degrees btw.Thanks for all the compliments guys!
Sure do--it's an f-body, they come that way from the factory don't they?
Seriously though, the only rattles I have are a few in my center console that I can fix, and when my windows are down they rattle a bit. Windows up, elbow on the armrest, hand on the shifter and head cocked to the left a little.....no rattles.

No. You'll have to order your own Flowmaster 10 series mufflers through a different vendor (Summit Racing for example) and hook them up to the TSP set-up. Shouldn't take too much modification to get those 1-chambers to fit with descent ground clearance...

But if you ran it out so far, you could have problems with the exhaust blackening the body panels, or run into clearance problems w/ subframe connectors.
