Single vs two chambers
 
I'm getting a set of mufflers this week. I'm definitely getting flowmasters, I like the sound of the 40 series 2 chamber mufflers, how do the single chamber race mufflers compare compare? I want the loudest muffler I can get, but I want it to have a similair hollow sound lke the 2 chambers. Also, would going to 3inch exhaust be any benefit over 2 1/2, or would it just hurt low-end torque?

The 1-chamber will be very, very loud. You'll love it for about a day, then slowly begin too hate it. It's really a race muffler, not a street muffler. Normally, a 3-inch exhaust would be a loss on your 5.0 but on a 514, no problem.

Amyone else? Do they still have a similair sound to the two chambers?

the one chamber is really loud, a guy at work has a built 350 in a s-10 he has the one chamber flows coming out from in front of his rear tire's, he fired it up in his garage, jeez i had to run out of there,a 429 you lucky dog!;) :D :D

I'd go with to 2-chambers. If you go with one-chambers you'll grab every cops attention in a 5-mile radius! Probably not what you want for a street car.

another vote for the two chambers... Mr. 5.0 is right, you'll probably get sick of them, but then again, people said I'd get sick of mine too, and I still find myself turning the radio off just to hear the sound! :)

The mufflers are actually for my 1985 Chevy Astrovan, I'm dropping in a 350 (performer rpm package,headers,port&polish) in a week or two, I want it to sound as bad as possible, most people won't be expecting a minivan when they hear it.

If you want it to sound as bad as possible, then definitely go for the one chambers!
