I have a 289 that was built by my local shelby/ford nut! It has domed pistons, aluminum world products heads (forgot the model) The engine is completely rollerized. Cam has a .600 lift. With a 750 Double pumper. Eldebrock Torquer intake. What should I use for exhaust? I have a 2 1/2 exhaust with some elcheapo mufflers right now. Should I upgrade to a 3 in? Spoke with a Rep. @ Jegs and he said that Flowmasters are not the answer. They just have a good marketing campaign. I am looking for performance and a nice semi loud tone. Any ideas?
