Doesnt a LS3 stroke to 414 or 416? Corsa sounds nice on anything you put it on. It will be louder than most but it is a good loud

My 408 with crappy 1 3/4" FLP headers and no cats into sorry 2 1/2" y pipe and Corsa catback. The headers and y pipe will be changed out soon.

The sound you get will vary with many different things. Your cam, your headers, cats no cats, timing, etc... I think mine sounds pretty good.

That type of sound should come from a redneck truck! I bet it is annoying for a daily driver but fun for weekends.

I'd imagine that they are proportionately louder? And if not, theyre certainly louder just from the extra duration on the bigger cams

The loudness is the same. I had the same exhaust on my old head/cam 346. Same decibals, different tone with different cam obviously.
