had a thrush glasspack on mine and it fell off and im glad it did. i wish i wouldn't have hacked my exhaust all the hell. i just dropped $400 and got full stainless duals and its wayy better. drop the cash and get it done right. mine sounded like a revv limitted chainsaw and snap and popped i hated it.

the new duals sounds mean when i first start it up then quiet up a bit, but i **** and git it sounds mean. No drone in the cab whatsoever, i actually can't even hear it. but i've had 2-3 people at gas stations ask me about them because you don't really see many blazers with duals. they look sharp and sound the same to match.

also if you don't get a good crimp with the muffler crimp you'll have holes. If i remember correctly, you are from Pitt and good luck passing inspection with that. And the 1000* muffler patch tape isn't legal either.

It's a good 20-30 dollar investment, i would reccomend it if you don't want to put a hole in your wallet.
what size muffler did you get? i/o and length?

I got one for my jimmy a week ago and put it on today, it does not make any popping noises at all it sounds pretty nice. Its louder but not as loud as a v8 for $30 I would buy it again when this one is done.

A buddy of mine had a glasspack on his 4.3 5speed. Sounded great. Like a old log truck. Lol, My whole family has glasspacks, dads got'em on his 5.7 vortec and a ford v6. Brothers got one on his 4 banger ranger and I got'em on my k5 350 and my ole silverado 350. Heck my grandma had one on her sliverado. Lol
