i wouldnt if i were you. It would probably sound like red-neck heaven. I would just replace the chokemaster with a different muffler. Magnaflow, aerochamber, even dynomax makes a cross flow muffler for our cars. But to answer your question, yes you can do that if you choose to. But i would not. Just my .02

what about dumping the exhaust? i read a lot of guys doing that...i just want to somehow keep the muffler tips there cuz i love the way they look

thats what i recently did. I had a magnaflow cat-back and was getting tired of it. So i took off the cat back and put a single camber muffler on the end of my ORY and dumped it at the rear end. I absolutley love how it sounds.

Dude just get a 25 dollar summit cutout and install it right before the axle. It will be loud when you want it and then you can still keep your muffler and chrome tips where they are at.

Magnaflow and hooker mufflers will be quieter than your flowmaster it.

wow, i feel stupid. i forgot all about the damn cutouts...lol. Personaly i have never heard a flowmaster on a LT1 car. I liked my magnaflow, but it just got too quiet.

^^^lol
I have a flowmaster on my car. I really like it. I had duals run on my old car with 1 chambers.
My plans for this car is when I get headers run one of my old spiral flow mufflers in place of the rear cat in my y pipe and place a cutout behind it and keep the flowmaster in the back. Then I can have loud, but not straight pipe loud, when I want it and stay pretty quiet when needed.

hell yeah, sounds like a good plan.

the cutout is actually a good idea...how would i rig that up? also will it sound good with the cutout open without a bullet before it?

Just cut out the amound of pipe it will take and clamp it in there. I put mine below the rear seat in front of the axle.
Didnt notice while ago that you had headers and no cats. It will sound good, but be very loud.
