---I am planning on gettin me a flowmaster 40 series muffler. I was wondering if a flow 40 single in/dual out would sound good. Also, what is a good place to get the flow 40 muffler. Thanks
Ross

In my opinion a pair of 1 in 1 out mufflers would sound better but the 1 in 2 out mufflers still sound pretty good.

From the ones that I have personally heard the dual muffler setups tend to be louder than the single in dual outs, some other people may have different opions, but I have heard both setups on the 5.3's and the dual mufflers was louder and this was on a Flowmaster 40 setup....

You'll be fine just remember the less pipe the exaust flows through the louder it will be,you'll also have less back pressure and more horse power:D I have the flowmaster 1 in 2 out and I dumped out in front of the back tire.:cool: If your truck is to low you may not have this option:bawl:

---Well, I am having mine dumped right BEHIND the rear tire. I am just worried that it won't be loud enough.....just reassure me that it will be louder than stock.......:D
