I have Flowmaster series 40 mufflers on my '72 440 Cuda and hate the resonance at low speeds. I was thinking about switching to Dynomax Ultra Flo or Magnaflow mufflers. Also read somewhere that the Pypes mufflers were a lot like the Magnaflows but less $$$. What mufflers are you guys running and how do you like them.

I am currently running Magnaflows on a 70 440 'Cuda and really like them. 2.5" system though. If you're running a 3" that could be a problem.
No drone, not too loud but still a bark when you step on it.
Like them better than the Dynomax's I ran on a different 440 Cuda

Not a big fan of my Ultra Flows. 3" exhaust with x pipe on a 73 charger. BIG time drone between 2100-2400... Just my setup I suppose. Will be going super turbos next time. But they havent rotted or broken baffles like all the chambered mufflers ive tried have.

I'm not trying to be difficult, it comes naturally....

I normally run Ultraflos but I don't think there is much difference between them as they have the same basic design. Not much that has lower back pressure than the Ultraflos. I think the Magnas are similar.

I have a 3" exhaust with x-pipe and tailpipes exiting through rear valance if it makes a difference.

Dynomax are the toughest and best sounding mufflers i have ever owned at least in my opinion!

I have a 3" X pipe system, turn downs after the axles, and 3" Magnaflows. No drone, not overly loud at idle and cruise, but barks when the pedal is down.

I made a little comparison video a few years back when I had switched from Flowtech afterburners to Magnaflows. The afterburners did have resonance, but that was gone once I installed the Magnaflows. The afterburners did have a cool classic sound though.

I Like the sound of my Magnaflows (3") I would think the Dynomax are similar, they are close in design. i like the stainless steel part...

I have TTI W2 headers and 3" through the dynomax super turbo mufflers and 2 1/2" tail pipes I have a drone at 25-35 MPH. I am think that the 1 7/8" header may be part of the problem. I am installing 2 1/2" Summit 12" glass packs in the tail pipes. I guess I am too old for that much noise. It is quiet above 35 MPH, but I can't stand the noise around town. I hope I don't lose the bark when I stand on it.

my coronet has a full 3" system w/hpipe and ultra flows. my dart had 2.5" system w/ xpipe and pypes race pros(dumps in front of the rear) both of them sound similar, no resonance and not to loud/obnoctious. both mufflers are the same in design.

I'm running Dynomax on two cars. The first is a 2.5 inch TTI system from stock 440 manifolds and H pipe. It has the dreaded drone at 45MPH or around 2200 RPMS. I get by that speed quickly but should fix it. The second is a total TTI system on a 440, 2" headers into a 2.5 inch system H pipe. This one sounds great at all speeds and have lots of people commenting on how good it sounds. I also run the OTP electric cut-outs on this one, they're a blast! I terrorize the cheby neighbor all the time!
