    LS1 Swap ... muffler questions

    Well...LS1 swap was a success, (NOW I NEED ADVICE).
    Question 1: I would love to hear everyone's opinion on which mufflers I should run on my 68 Chevy truck with a 5 speed standard with my true duel exhaust system without catalytic converters. I want it to be nice and loud outside when i HAMMER DOWN but i want to cruise and carry on a conversation while i go down' the highway. Price is a concern for me as this swap has drained Ft Knox of all play money. So lets hear it; LIKES & DISLIKES & WHY i should choose one over another. Flowmaster, Hooker, Summit, Thrush, Dynomax, Magnaflow, Borla, or a nice off brand, etc.
    THANKS!

    I could barely hold a conversation in my 69 with dual Flowmasters on it. Just a mild 350 and duals. I'd go with magnaflow for something like that.

    I like the Hooker Maxflow myself. I have no problem with the Magnaflows either but the Maxflow will put down more power than a traditional muffler since it has a strait through design. They are quiet below 3k rpms but sound like strait pipe at WOT!
