While I have the cab off of my frame and have easy access, I thought it
would be a good time to install the exhaust, but two questions have come
up. First, what do you guys think about an H-pipe (or balance pipe)? I
have a 350 engine with headers, and I am going to run dual exhaust. In
searching the internet, H-pipes seem really common on Mustangs, but
otherwise I haven't found much other than manufacturers and retailers
advising that you really should have an H-pipe with a dual exhaust.
I've found universal H-pipe kits from Summit and Jegs for $32, but is it
worth it?
Secondly, what about the mufflers? I'd like my truck to sound cool, but
not annoyingly loud inside. I think I like the sound of the Flowmaster
50 series, but are they really $80 better than the (Dynomax) Thrush
Turbo mufflers I can get from the local auto parts store for $20? Any
recommendations or comments on whether I should get two Thrush Turbos
for $40 or two Flowmasters for $200?
Thanks,
Mark
