Haha that's with a cammed 383 stroker motor, so it'll be tough to imitate that. you can just simpkly run a super 44 and you'll be close, just without the lope. i have dual super 40s on my '78 and it sounds great at idle. i've driven a stock chevy silverado with just a gibson catback and it sounded pretty mean, smooth and throaty, but without that musclecar rasp.

i had an exhaust shop do it. everything from the y-pipe on back is new. high-flow cat, new piping, magnaflow muffler, tailpipe, tip. eventually, i would like to get either JBA or Edelbrock headers and a new ypipe so its a complete exhaust system

also, the shop custom makes the tips. the tip says "silverline" on it the guy told me that they just took two of the smaller standard tips and welded them to a little y-pipe. he said they primarily put them on corvettes

here is a soundclip of mine.

I just removed the factory muffler and put in a dual chamber resonator. At first I had straight pipes but got sick of it so I needed to tone it down a wee bit, not much but enough.
