t_bone44 · 09-11-2008, 05:12 AM

i have mine clamped on in place of the stock. it sounds ok. not amazing but not horrible. its ok. what are u trying to run it on?

BoSoxFanSims34 · 09-16-2008, 11:15 PM

i have 4.3 with a 40 series and no cat and im always getting complimented on it

BoSoxFanSims34 · 09-16-2008, 11:18 PM

so i thought i knew how to post a video but i guess i dont

nycblazer96 · 09-21-2008, 10:06 AM

they sound just like a v8 with flowmasters i got complemented alot for the sound. even old school guys that only run a v8 ask me if i had a v8, i always told them yes just to mess with them, when i opened the hood surprise!!! a 4.3L v6...

i love it

Neveragain · 09-28-2008, 07:35 PM

Flowmaster 40 with a high flow cat. Keep getting questions of what size v8 is in there.

superbee · 10-03-2008, 02:30 PM

ya i still think flow's are the best sounding mufflers for the six bangers. THat black truck sounds pretty damn good.

MINTSICK · 10-03-2008, 03:28 PM

Black truck sounds nice but I'd still prefer a Spintech or Magnaflow.

4.3tbi · 10-03-2008, 05:32 PM

i got it on my 1989 s10 4.3l 4x4 not cat sound good not great

i have it on my 03 dodge ram 1500 4.7l no cat straght pipe sound great

nycblazer96 · 10-03-2008, 10:10 PM

Spintech or Magnaflow muflers sound like crap i hate their sound. there aint nothing close to that flowmaster sound echoing inside your exhaust, dam i love that sound. and just so you guys know i have a 4.3L no cat with original 40 series flowmasters and they sound great. i like when i shift through gears slow and it kinda makes a poping sound.

i'm gonna try to make a video soon so i can prove it.
the video will be uncut shopwing you the 4.3 5 speed no cat under the car with only a 40 series flowmaster under there using all the stock pipes.

stevehh · 10-03-2008, 10:21 PM

It sounds good...IMO

Here is mine, single in--dual out.

stevehh · 10-03-2008, 10:22 PM

Those are 6 inch long chrome tips that are 3 1/2" at the end.

haha

I do occasionally...

1fast4by · 10-03-2008, 10:33 PM

Had a Flow 40...Never once got asked if i had a V-8...Just what kind of muffler i had...
BTW Flowmaster FTMFL! try Flowstopper

Now, I do get asked what V-8 swap i have, But thats only after the cam swap, motor build, and 2.5" ypipe and 3" Hooker Maxflow.... That Is unless they hear it anywhere above 2000 RPM when the cam clears up, and it sounds like a shitty V6 with a 3" exhaust again....

stevehh · 10-03-2008, 11:40 PM

Yeah it is mostly by stupid kids who think my truck has a V8 even some stupid old dudes just cause its a cowl hood, they think there is some monster hiding under there...

Soon enough there will be! Have a 02 Vette motor me and my father are tearing down now and gonna have it ready to drop in by December! W00T!

*Hopefully nothing side-tracks us...

stevehh · 10-03-2008, 11:42 PM

Or it's gonna be a s/c...

Still deciding whether i wanna do the V8 swap and all...

"we neeedddd morreee pooweeerr captian!!!"

lee-mill · 10-03-2008, 11:50 PM

as long as you have a 2.2 itll sound like 350......................

stevehh · 10-03-2008, 11:51 PM

bbbwwwwhahhahaha

You made red bull erupt from my mouth with that comment there sir!

lee-mill · 10-03-2008, 11:52 PM

haha thanks mang i try

stevehh · 10-03-2008, 11:54 PM

Oh christ man!

My damn 2, 4 and 8 no longer work on the num pad on my keyboard...

Thank You!

LSX swap, while providing MUCH MUCH more potential power, will inherently nickle and dime you to death. The blower 4.3, you know exactly what you're getting and for how much, just depends on how far you want to go sir

stevehh · 10-04-2008, 12:08 AM

Very true bro...

I could just do the s/c this winter and if I decide later on while the motor is just sitting on the stand to do a swap I can do it...or I can build up a baddd ass motor and sell it to the highest bidder...or I can sell the s/c always as well.

Potential potential!

1fast4by · 10-04-2008, 12:20 AM

In hindsight, I could have done an LSx for the price I have in mine now....But who else has a built 4x4 4.3 on the bottle cooking all 4 tires and able to best SS 'Maros lol

damn I should have got a 2wd.... haha

to each their own, Im a mad man...want to buy it?!

stevehh · 10-04-2008, 12:23 AM

Naw you keep it bro...you built it, it should be yer baby man!

Got pics of it dude???

Have not seen it in a looonnnggg time.
