Default 402, 408 ,427 Stroker Guys Please Come In!!!!!!!

What would be the best catback for my 427 stroker ws6, street / track car.
(Fast 90/90, Mti S1 cam, Tea stage III 6.0l heads, kooks 1/7/8 headers)

I don`t want to leave to much power under the table.

I don`t realy want to run true duals. Anybody have any thoughts, been racking my brain.

I thought that I would need at least a single 4" system.
Was thinking of something like a mufflex 4" spintech setup, but then I heard the spintech muffler sounds good but is very restrictive.

Does nobody else make 4" system?

Do you guys think a single 3" cat back is not to restritive for a 427?

Anybody with 402, 408 or 427 strokers making over 500rwhp with 3" single catback. If so can you post power figures, motor size and brand of 3" catback


Thanks 2002gt

Check out my current system (the Kooks/SLP one). It's built specifically as a sleeper exhaust that will flow plenty for whatever the hell I plan to do later. I dreamed it up/built it myself, and love it.

Here's a clip. It sounds a LOT louder with the cutout closed on video than it really is. My camera always produces alot of bass for some reason.

my setup consists of 1 3/4 qtp hvmc headers,qtp ory and hooker catback.it did 511/483 cutout closed and 517/493 cutout open.with that 427 you will be moving more air than me so i'd say with a setup like mine you would be losing 10-15 hp with the cutout closed.i don't have a clue what it would put out with duals,i guess it depends on who you ask but i am very happy to have over 510rw through 1 3/4 headers through a fairly quiet exhaust.

Thanks Guys!! Keep the setups coming!

I think what ever I do I am going to need a cutout.

Questsion for the guys with cutouts, which ones are the best and do they leak or seal shut?
(ie exhust ticking)
