bolt up glasspacks or high pass mufflers

Ok, got a mildly built 350 and have just a set of summit full length headers on it now with just some sections of straight pipe (was just to get it running and driveable for now). well all i can say is that it is loud and my neighbors don't enjoy hearing my car set off every car alarm at 6 in the morning for a 2 block radius when i go to work :D

i know that I need pipes and exhaust.

on my previous car (69 GTO with a built 389 6pack setup) I was running full length headers and purple horny bolt on down swept glass packs

well i am looking at going back to the purple hornies or a set of cherry bombs that are also bolt on diretly to the headers. but I would like input from folks out there on other options since I have not been in the glasspack or high flow muffler market since the late 90's .

Thanks,

Joe

luckily, down here in Sierra Vista we don't have the emissions/smog rules you guys in Phoenix and Tucson have to deal with.

only thing is that I will be adding in a cross over tube right after the headers.

I was also considering a set of the thrush welded mufflers

yeah, looked at price of those ultra-flows and twice as much the cherry bombs, thrush, or purple hornies.

did look at their super turbo's though. my max would be 100 total for both mufflers/glass packs.

yes, the purple hornies that have the turn downs will exit behind the front seats.

on my really agresssively built gto they sounded great

was wondering how they will be on my mildly built chevelle

i am really considering buying both the purple hornies and the cherry bombs and do a comparision.
