I just got my new system on my 68 427 on Saturday.  Dynomax Super Turbo.  The sound is solid, throaty, but not too loud.  Mine is a convertible.  Dynomax is known (supposedly) for having less resonance; this is the first time i've used them.

A big advantage to going to a shop that sells basically what you're looking for, is they will fit different types on your car right there so you can compare the sound. Can't get that from "mail order". It'll give you a reasonable idea of what they sound like from outside the car. aceinthehole2007-07-28 20:20:20

The "classic chambered" on my 75 have a very throaty sound from idle to 4000 rpm. After 4000rpm they begin to payoff like the vintage glass packs. Mine are true duals, no crossovers or tie ins.

Smile Just put new exhaust on last week.  Had em custom built front to back.  Stepped up to 2 1/2 aluminized steel with polished stainless magnaflows.  I agree with aceinthehole....sounds great but doesn't deafen!  Looks so nice from the back I hate to put the spare carrier back on!

Hey Nate ! I have the 2 1/2" single exit and I would bet that Big John has the same. They do sound sweet.
