It's a deep exhaust note, but I do not think it drones at all. Makes the stereo a little hard to hear at high speeds, though. I think it's pretty much perfect. It gets loud when you get on it but it's pretty tame when you're cruising. At light throttle it's barely louder than my stock yukon denali.

Nicely documented; BIG PICS; but easy to see and follow; nice work! I wish I had the know how, the equipment, the patience, the room, etc. to take on a project like that; I have to rely on others and pay them.
Back to VetteAid; I have the dash cluster in my 85 with the white face Auto Meters; nice gauges; but not perfect; the speedo wants to jump around at low speeds until finally smoothing out around 50mph. I know it probably needs a buffer somewhere; Jody sent me a new speedo when I called him about it but the new one does the same thing. I think others on the forum did a f-body type buffer for the gauges that came in the those cars to smooth it out. I guess I need to find a buffer or something to get it right; talked to some who have said it's a grounding issue; not sure if Jody knows exactly what the issue is; nice product; but I am a little disappointed after throwing down that kind of cash for a "plug in and play" "turn key" deal.
Anyway, was not a hi-jack attempt, it's just another interesting point about your wiring harness.
You have a great project going on! Thanks for sharing.

Very impressive car, well done to the brilliant work! I'm interested in more info on what rims you are running and the specs on the sizes. Any issues fitting them? Thanks from 89C4 Downunder!
