Flowmaster 70

I did a search and really couldnt find the answer i was trying to find. Found an almost new 70 series SI/DO on CL and was trying to find if anyone with the newer trucks had one. Everything i seem to find is old and was just wanting to know if anyone liked it. Since its dual, i was thinking about making it exit out the side in front of the tire but dont know if it would get too annoying with AFM (might have to get that tuned out anyway) or if i would take it out the back. I know the longer the quieter but i have always like the side exit with square tips.

 

Pros and cons appretiated

It will drone horribly and most noticeably if you exit it in front of the rear tire.

Then i will probably take it out the back, still dont know if I will get it cause i just found a set of Toyo MT's with about 6 K on them for really cheap. Hey David, when do you come back from Korea?

I had the 70-series on a 5.3L and it's fairly quiet. It had a nice tone, just not aggressive enough for my taste. No drone but that was with dual rear exits. I actually got rid of it for a 40-series...

I had the 70 series on my 07 6.0L 3/4 ton truck. I wanted to go louder but wifey hates it. It worked well...no drone and not very loud, just a nice small block rumble. It had the dual tail pipes out the corners in back. I did not go straight back because I was towing a 5th wheel and thought the noise would bounce off the front of the trailer and echo back to the truck...worked good.

I found it on Craigslist and was going to look for a replacement to use the stock pipe but found this one with dual exit. Its listed for 80, would 50 be a fair deal on a used muffler. As you can tell by the pic it hasnt been used very much.

I have a 50 series with a turndown and the drone is minimal if even noticeable. I would think the 70 would be just fine.

I'm going to send the guy a text and see if he will take 50 for it, I really like the side exit like the Gibson supertruck....I think

    • You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built. 
    • Diesel hit $6.00 here today at the truck stop.   Payed $2.79 for E85 today too.
    • Thanks for posting, I'm sure it will help someone
    • New to diesel trucks. I happened to find my oil cooler leaking oil externally with only 4,000 miles on the truck. I didn’t realize this was an issue until I started researching it. Dealer is going to replace it under warranty but I’m wondering if there’s anything GM is working on to fix this issue. I’ve heard the oil filter used is the same as they use on their V6 motors and that’s what is causing the problems. Should I switch to a bigger filter or keep using the OEM recommended? 
    • So, GMCustomerService:  Judging by the Update History pictured above, is this truck missing any updates that it actually needs. If it's just for the infotainment system, the radio is working fine and no trouble with SeriusXM. and Android Auto is working fine wirelessly with my phone. Some months ago, an update notice was sent to my truck. I approved the update and it finished saying that the update was successful, but it seems that whatever that update was, it didn't actually get installed - at least not if I'm to go by the Update History shown above.   So, again, are there any updates that this truck really should have? I've checked with my dealer but they're reluctant or commit to anything and if I want them to check, they require a $200.00 fee just to check it out and then I'd have to pay for the actual update(s).    Ignorance is bliss, and if none of the updates goes to fixing any mechanical discrepancies, I'll just leave things as is.
