    Nice job. I bet the flowmaster/ no crossover/ 3"tails has a great sound very deep and choppy. got any video? Thanks for posting the pictures.

    Two 1973 LDO Mavericks (one 4 Drag one 4 driving like Mad on the roads :) ) also have a 75 6cyl Stock! Ok, well sort of Stock :P
    just another fact that you can get a 3 over the axle ;)

    now where is that guy that always said 3s were useless?

    anyways dude, i'd love to hear what they sound like though. must be wicked with the SC sound too lol! mines too quite i think i'm gonna change back to a chambered muffler on mine... ;)

    btw you improve on any track times?

    Looks great. If you don't mind me askin, how do those Flowmaster 50's sound? Do they resonate real bad?

    They have some a little above idle, I drove it this afternoon Thur town, I found it easy to drive Thur the resonation pretty easy, I guess it will just take getting use to, it is a little louder than what i wanted. But if it helps performance( which i plan to find out tomorrow nite) I think it will be livable.

    I was asking because I currently have Flowmaster 40's, and I love the way they sound outside the car, but they just resonate too bad at any rpm to have a conversation or to listen to the stereo.
