THRUSH muffs Sound much better! Adjust your idle set screws in until idle drops (It's about a minute delay) reaction then adjust them out a tad till it idles up. I use a tack & dwell meter. Not sure what size carb you have on there or what kind but you may need to rejet it with smaller jets to get your mixture right. I like edelbrock carbs for the street & reliability. The IROC hood would look better❗
Put a thrush on my 85 Tbird. Love it way better than flowmaster. Tried flowmaster and magnaflow on my dodge 2500 and the thrush sounds better than both. Running thrush's on all my trucks. And V8 cars.
Have thrush mufflers on my c10, sounded great, 7 years now and theyre a little rotten now. No ice or snow where i live. Going to get the same ones put back on anyways.
Show off your Comet, it looks good. I vote for the Thrush mufflers. I always hear people say “old school” when talking about The Flowmaster sound. They are more of a 90’s sound to me. I think a turbo muffler sounds real “old school.”
Also those turbo mufflers have glass packing kinda like glasspacks that take a few hundred miles to break in they will sound different after a few hundred miles where as a chambered muffler like the flowmaster does not have any packing and won't change in sound
The Flowmasters sound too "tinny" for me. I've been searchin and searchin for a video of an actual muscle car with some "quiet" mufflers so thanks man. I got a straight piped 383 stroker and I love the sound. Been crusing around like that for about 10 years but recently I moved into an apartment building and all the neighbors are little bitches.
Flowmaster sucks they sound cheap and they rust out in weeks. Their entire exhaust systems rust out anywhere they weld at. They advertise how good they are against corrosion, lol. The pipes are good except at every weld. The welding takes away the corrosion resistance. For the money, thrush is 100 times better and sound better.
Nice Video! was considering getting the Thrush from summit so you helped out alot, one suggestion though- put turndowns on the tailpipe/end of mufflers, the exhaust is ruining your bumper paint! GJ again, and nice car !
Man , I had an 85 silverado that was had everything done to the motor and you could literally hear it from a 500 feet away inside a brick building and unfortunately years ago I sold it and what makes me sick is today the motor work alone would cost more than I sold it for. Picture every mint jacked up silverado you see online with 12 inches of lift on it all together and see what the price tag is and unfortunately almost 20 years ago I sold it for 7500. Now I'm looking for another one and kicking myself in the ass for not just throwing it in the garage and letting it sit.
Did you listen to some jack ass family member, tell you you should sell it? I’ve learned to never listen to anyone’s opinion except my own!! When you have something you love you should never get rid of it!!
@@zachsheffee8458 talking 20 years ago. At the time I wanted a car thst was better on gas than getting 6 - 8 mpg. Wasn't really thinking about a fade coming 20 years later where people would be willing to spend 30 to 100k on them. But no my parents didn't care what I did with it. And idk where I would have stored it for 20 years but I do wish I kept it. I mean if I was really thinking I would have bought bitcoin when I was told to at a time it was going for a few dollars a piece. That's a little more of a make you sick moment than the truck. Had a friend that told me to buy it and seeing I didn't know anything about it I said idk about that sounds like I'm throwing money away. Did the math and a few thousand would now be tens of millions , that hurts more lol
It's. Holleys sniper self adjusting system, no computer (just by it self) adjusts to atmospheric conditions great if you don't care for adjusting carberators. BUT Turbos for the win!!! much snappier sounding and you hear your Engines valves chambers popping and snapping way better and, using an a agressive camshaft (IE) one with more lift and tighter lobe seperation, will really sound more race car. Been using them back in the 80s love the Engine sound better than lame cherry bombs or flow munsters......
What deep tone throaty muffler do you recommend for a 1987 4Runner 22RE EFI. Dyno max? Cherry bomb? Thrush? Or flow master? I also bought a camshaft for it, it has a choppy aggressive sound to it. Thanks for reading
I've used those Thrush turbo mufflers on a small chev 350cu . Lol I put those mufflers on backwards,on purpose. OMG THE RUMBLE!! THE SOUND AS SO LOUD IT PISSED OFF THE POLICE IN Victoria B.C Canara
Put the flow masters back on ,and leave the 4inch hood on with black SS stripes. That way a muscle car guy will see you coming from a distance and that you mean business .
@@jameslandon4126 , I had flowmaster on my truck. Sounded terrible and rusted out in 1 year. Replaced with thrush, sounds great with a nice low growl cruising, and let's the power sound good under acceleration. Forgot to mention, I had on truck for the last four years , still no rust. Thrush cost about 1/4 the price of flowmaster crap.
I've been trying to figure out how to get another foot of pipe or turndowns on the end of them. I would have to move stuff around to get some welded on there. Maybe in the future!
@@ZanesGarage just slide the turndowns on into position, put a small tack weld or 2 then drop the exhaust down far enough to weld the rest of it. But if you want to get rid of the drone, then get you a dual in dual out Flowmaster or Thrush welded and put it closer to the engine. Need to get it about where you sit under the car. The muffler will change the sound earlier and then travel on out the back. Having the mufflers in the back will create that deep drone sound.
I have a set of thrush dual chamber mufflers, more or less just like flow master, on my mustang fox body with off road H pipe and sounds exactly like my friends fox body with same specs, same sound for a lot cheaper, just here to see how the thrush turbo sounds coz I was wanting to put one in my zx2, I want some sound with out sounding like a fart cannon
The Thrush mufflers are much better. And as far as the hood? Lose the one that's on the car now and replace with the other one. Thanks for sharing! Oh and BTW, I'm really digging your Maverick!! Had one similar bad in the day, (in 1981) except mine was green. 😉👍👍👍
I was thrown back when I saw what is a Camaro guy with what looks like a mint Maverick in his garage. Always been on my bucket list to restore a Maverick Grabber.
Because you have your muffler at the end of the exhaust that needs a tailpipe, put the mufflers further up in the exhaust system or get the proper two into one and exhaust for that
Sounds much better.. but try the walker super turbo better version of the thrush and better flowing just as quit just much deeper old school sound I have run both for many years
I just put a cherrybomb vortex dual in dual out 2 1/2 On my 97 4x4 suburban with turn downs and it sounds badass and runs even better..pulled the 40 series flows off sounds better runs even better everyone live it
If your going for the sleeper look try the original hood,but if you might put the turbos back on the cowl hood. Also how's that sniper efi working for you, I want to try it out but not sure yet
Yeah I agree. And it's really nice I liked my old Holley carb but the efi setup really woke the car up. If your car has a return fuel line and you can swap to a high pressure fuel pump easily then its a quick swap really.
I've got a set of 40 series on my 85 Corvette they sound great but drone me to death on the inside of the car can't hear my radio half the time and it gives me a headache I don't mind a loud good sounding car if all the noise would fracking stay on the outside of it so I'll replacing them soon just haven't decided on muffler's to get.
The Thrush Welded are pretty good. They're a 40 series knockoff but the case is pretty thick so it doesn't sound quite as hollow, and in my experience doesn't drone bad at all. Magnaflow makes a 2 chamber called the Rumble and it's just as good as the Thrush, if not better. Also, another favorite of mine is the Hooker Aerochamber. It's kind of a Flowmaster and Magnaflow mix, sounds awesome, flows as well as anything and no drone.
I'd take it out to an exhaust shop and ask their opinion. Chances are, they've worked on other 200s and they can talk with you to figure out exactly what you want
You wasted your time installing the thrush mufflers even if they were given to you FREE. The flowmasters were ok but you are really missing the point? buy yourself a set of series 10 flowmasters they are cheap stainless and 1 third the size and weight and 2 times as aggressive. save weight money and more flow ? whats not to like ? also you got a small block chevy cheap and easy to work on pop the heads off and machine the tops of the guides to accept teflon valve seals you can buy the cutter to do this on a hand drill cheap and you will never have smoke coming out the rear from valve seal issues ever again. for seals and cutter and headgasket and intake and exhaust you might be out $125 tops and now would be the time to upgrade the springs and or port the heads etc.
I bought these off of eBay if you search for chevy vortec finned valve covers you'll see a lot of options. I believe these are the short version but they also make tall ones.

I always did enjoy the " sweet sound of my Thrush Turbo single exhaust " on my 1972 Monte Carlo , I miss it and the car to .
The Thrush mufflers take me back to the the deep throaty 70’s sounds. Nice.
But they're neither deep nor throaty.... 🤔
Their clean tho. Never been a fan of chambered mufflers. Either turbo or glass packs for me @@lollipop84858

Makes sense that they would break in. I guess that's the reason people say Flowmaster sounds tinny is because if the open chambers!
Flowmaster mufflers sound like tin cans.
Thanks for the video, I couldn't find any other good comparisons on YT and I've been torn between the two for awhile now, This vid helped a LOT!
Glad it helped!
Thrush perforated mufflers have a more settled tone...suits the 3rd gen. Nice choice.

@@RRr-qn3ue Thrush are made in China.. Flowmaster in USA..so there's that to consider.
Yes!
Very helpful considering a muffler change for more power don't want anything too loud
How much more power does a muffler change make exactly? And how do mufflers make power? Are they making it or freeing it up?
Rumbly sound with the Flowmasters, Thundery sound with the Thrush.

350 sbc?
@@ashtonarquette9228 No it's a 4.3 but it sounds very clean.. very modern

Flowmaster has that signature sound. Hard to beat it. Maybe Magna flow for a different sound but not a big fan of turbo mufflers or glass packs.
Put the flow masters back on ,and leave the 4inch hood on with black SS stripes. That way a muscle car guy will see you coming from a distance and that you mean business .

As a musicians point of view, The acoustics on the 2nd instrument, sound profoundly better and is within my pitch preference.
You need to put on a nice pair of chrome exhaust tips to keep your bumper clean.

@@ikesims5328 it's the 302 as well.
Would sound better mounted under the car instead of back by the bumper
Are you running like way rich or burning oil?
and i notice it left black stuuf on your bumper maybe you should move the rear pipe back some . but it sound tuff throw .
Honestly the thrush doesn’t sound bad. The flowmaster just has a more throaty sound.

I can’t stand Flowmasters - they’re basically echo chambers. Thrush sounds so much better.

Your engine is running way too rich.
Ain't running rich til you leave a black mark every time you crank up.
