I like the sound of the 2 chamber flowmasters. Some like dynomax and borlas. It all comes down to personal choice. Lots of YouTube videos of muffler sounds.

Do a few Google searches and you'll come up with the various flow charts. Personally, I'd never run Flowmasters or anything that is that restrictive. Dynamax Ultraflows.....they flow almost as well as a straight piece of pipe.

I added a 3" X-pipe and Dynomax Ultraflow mufflers to my TTI step-header equipped 360 and picked up! It ran at least as well before I took out the 60 lbs the exhaust system added to the car and re-tuned the carb.

X-pipe probably helped and I'm sure the mufflers didn't hurt.

Summit Super Turbo's are the best $25 you will ever spend. Had them on my wifes vette since 2003 and they really are the perfect tone and volume. My son used one on his firebird, i dont think you will be disappointed.

I think so. They are the mufflers that come w/ their 3" exhaust system. The motor is a 11.2:1 .030 over stock stroke 440. H-beam rods, Ross pistons, ported stage VI heads, 580/588 Solid roller cam, Stock 6-pack and 1 3/4 headers (so to be 2")
