I m putting a old 12 valve in my chevy and gona put new exhaust on. I don't what it to loud but i want it to make some noise. What do u all like?

 

for that I would say a straight pipe all the way back.

my stock exhaust with 3.5" all the way back no muffler etc. was quieter than the motor, the stack is considerably louder. maybe a 4" straight all the way back would be good for your app.

 

4 in straight pipe to a single 6in stack for sure

 

My 93 with 4in Straight is quieter than my 05 with straight pipe that I had.

If you go straight 4 in I think you'll be happy.

 

I dont think he wanted the noise of a stack.

the VE motors are pretty quiet as is anyways.

 

no i don't want a stack i was more asking 3 in 4 in with maybe a tip not sure

 

4"

the 3" is kinda higher pitched and raspy.

 

you mean the melody of a stack i find it quite soothing but hey whatever tickles your pickle

 

How do you figure that? It's a 12v just like any 12v.


I like mine free-flowing and very quiet . . .

 

What kind of muffler is that?

Has anyone tried a glasspack like the following? I have glasspacks on an old GM 6.2L diesel and it really sounds mean. Glasspacks take out the high frequency but not the low frequency so you get a low/deep pitched rumbling exhaust note. It does well at setting off all the car alarms.

I found a youtube clip of someone who installed glasspacks.
