Default Muffler
Muffler is getting a little bad on my 6.5.. I have a new muffler that came off a Dodge Rumble Bee 5.7 gaser, Would this work ok on the 6.5.

Test fit it. If it'll fit, it'll work.

well im guessing a ram 1500 has a smaller diameter pipe then 2.75 inches so you will probably kill some power and mpgs but it will be quiet

No it wont. Gassers use chambered mufflers, bad for diesels and worse for turbos.
