This web sight goes to a "chambered" exhaust muffler business I just found online.
I remember this type of exhaust on early 409 Chevy's and thought it was cool. There is a /6 utube video to hear how it sounds.

None for me, thanks; loud exhausts are fun for a couple days, then they get old in a big hurry.

I'm deaf in one ear, so my glasspacks just sounded "throaty" to me but I found out everyone else considers them obnoxious. Gotta get it changed eventually.

As another old guy, I also have a dislike for loud exhausts. I can't find one as quiet as the OEM on my '64 Valiant. All of my previous slant cars were quiet, but this one is bad.
This spring it goes into the muffler shop again to try and find something that doesn't resonate so annoyingly.

Just think, you can tune out the wife, kids, mexican poka music. Nothing wrong with my hearing. What with rock and roll and loud exhausts, I hear just fine...

I ran my slant in my garage with no exhaust, just the headpipe for a startup, it was pretty quiet with 2 feet of 2" pipe. but rev it up and Im sure it would get louder.

Thats what I thought when I had duo 2 1/4" pipes made without mufflers. However It also makes it hard to think :P
