Go to Edelbrock, Magnaflow, etc they have actual recordings of their exhaust systems. You didn't say what year your truck was. I would not automatically go to a true dual exhaust system. I like the idea of running both banks into one muffler which has dual outlets. this type of system tends to scavenge better then a true dual system. Remember you get what you pay for. Do the job right in the first place.

Default Go glasspack

I have a 92 5.0 with a 22" length, 4" body Cherry Bomb glasspack single exit stockside and I'm lovin' it. Good n loud with a little scratch on the back side. It's a real head turner.

You want that muscle car sound??? Go glasspack baby

V8s only please. Anything else sounds like rice.
