Great looking truck! How is the noise in the cab with it being in facory cat location? Ive been thru 5 different configurations/ mufflers on my 91 s10 and cant find a good sound. When you say jones glasspack do you mean the flowpack?
Jones is the brand, no bad drone, it's not even that loud. I meant to say that this brand or style have louvers, if you look inside it's all bumpy. A cherry bomb is a straight smooth pipe with holes drilled all around so that the outer packing muffles the sound. But that style actually doesn't muffle as good as this style. Thanks for watching!
Just put a brand new 4.3 vortex in my 97 Chevy 2 wheel drive want to know what kind of headers to put on it short or long and what brand anybody can help I would appreciate it thanks 👍
Headers on a tbi or OBD2 efi setup won't really gain you any power without a tune. BUT... it'll sound good at least. Short tubes are good for a truck application, but I've always liked the sound of long tubes, can't beat it. The problem with a 6cyl vs a V8 though is high rpms they get raspy, like a tractor, but with a good muffler like a flow master 40 it'll sound good. Glasspack might be too "derby car" sounding. I would go 2.5" exhaust pipe too to try and get a deep sound. I only have 2 1/4 but I like how mine sounds. But I only have stock manifolds so it's about as good as it can be.
No cat, Jones glass pack where the cat was, then 2 ¼ pipe all the way to the bumper. I think I put the glass pack on backwards by accident but it made it quieter, basically the same as having just a cat and nothing behind it.
Man I need to re-do this video so there is no wind noise, truck is in storage till spring. Thanks for watching!
I have an 89 and have had a thrush welded on it for 7 years. I love it.
I just bought a 93 s10 4.3 l v6 and I’m definitely gonna do this
It's been a great truck for 12 years now!
I have a 89 I'm building same body and motor
Thank you this helps a lot
