Hey,all.

I just ordered this exhaust(pn#603-836) from Mid-America:http://www.madvet.com/shop?frame=4.1267

Any opinions on what mufflers would be the best?

Btw,I pretty much blew the whole budget on the exhaust,so reasonably priced mufflers would be more realistic right now.

Thanks.

I like walker 17219s and think they'd work well in your application. Smooth idle, nice and racy when you get on it.

2.5" offset outlet center inlet.

I'm currently running a pair of 3" Dynomax Race Magnum "bullets." At $30/per they are certainly cheap, but for a muffler they don't do much muffling. :lol:

I do have a pair of Flowmaster 40 Series "Delta Flow" mufflers for sale that came off my '74. ~4000miles use. $60. I liked them, but were a little too quiet for me.

:cheers:

I run the same Flowmasters and I love 'em. I love that sound when you jump on it. :yesnod:

Hooker makes some nice mufflers that are around 50 dollars each. They have the Aerochambers and Max flows both are great mufflers.

Just installed the Spintec mufflers iwth a 2 1/2" X pipe. If you like the sound of Flowmasters, wait until you here the Spintecs, a little pricey here paid $150 ea.

I was thinking of runnig them on my 86 MCSS. I'm going to look in to them again,Thanks!

OUCH.Yeah,that's what I was hoping to avoid. I don't want to cut corners,but my budget is low...

So,to clarify;what I'm seeing is I don't have to run a Corvette specific muffler to run with this particular exhaust? I can go ahead and use a "universal" fit muffler form one of the name companies?

Anyone know the best case length and offst to use?

Thanks again for all your help,everyone!

Get the Walkers, they are a direct fit and have the tips and necessary brackets attached.

i got mine off here. for $30 (shipping) i just went to the C5 racing section and asked if any guys still had thier stock mufflers and what they would part with them for. well a couple guys said if i would pay for shipping, i could have them! :cool:

they are a little quiet, but i love the sound they make. boomy at idle, and calm until you open it up. :cool:

Yes, and fit correctly. You don`t whine up with a plummers nightmare trying to locate hangers and adapters. Plus no pump jockey annoying sound. If you have some HP, it comes right through. :thumbs:

Hi
I also need new mufflers for my C3 '79.
I don't know what is on now, 2 different ones with no marking.
how do I know what sound they make? or how loud?
I was thinking of getting some dynomax super turbo..
i don't want too loud, but a good sound.
whats the difference to a flowmaster or hooker?or other brand and type?
thanks
