5.3l with stock muffler, resonator, and valve cut off. I welded in a flowmaster 40 series. Gives the v8 muscle car sound. There was a little drone until the muffler was broke in... Now there is nothing. When your not on the throttle it's just a little rumble. When you hit it good it sounds like it should! I can post a video in am if you like...

I chopped both the muffler and the valve off and I personally think it sounds great. I drove from San Diego to Mississippi and back and it didn't bother me.    As far as DoD (aka AFM?), they

So I did a muffler delete recently and just a straight pipe but kept the resonator on the rear. I’m getting a lot cab noise should I put a high flow muffler instead?     Sent from my iPhone using Tap

Put on a small magnaflow or borla XR1 muffler. Something that is straight through.

No once at speed it gets quiet unless you put your foot into it.

I did the same with my set up 6.2 L with a 12909 Magnaflow 3.5". Remove OEM muffler, resonator and flapper valve... I have not looked back... At first I did the muffler delete with resonator in place and it was too loud for the neighborhood along with v4 mode drone. Now v4 is not a big deal as I notice it about like stock. Good luck with your choice.

Do you have any sound clips? I have the 12909 with flapper removed and resonator still on. I am considering removing the resonator for a little extra sound.

I had muffler delete on my 14 GMC as an experiment before going with a performance muffler. It wasn’t loud really after initial start up. Lite sound cruising, more on throttle. The resonator is really no different than a glass pack. Then you add the cats can’t expect too much noise. Evidently I put a performance muffler on, it went back to stock sounding. At 59 years old my loud exhaust was a thing of the past for a daily driver. As far as sound quality that’s in the ear of the beholder.

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Missing pieces of the Assembly   Detergency vs Solvency   Not the same thing. Detergency is the mechanism that surrounds solid particulates preventing amalgamation. Usually accompanied by a Dispersant whose job it is to keep those encapsulated particles in Suspension. Solvency keeps things that can be dissolved in solution.    Salt is a solid that can be dissolved. Pepper is a solid that cannot be dissolved. A detergent/dispersant is effective on pepper but a solvent is more effective on salt. As long as the solids remain in either state, dissolved or dispersed then they can be be removed with the oil upon change.    How many wranglers does it take to herd cats? Depends on how many cats your herding. How much sponge does it take to soak up water? How much water is there to soak up? Point is most oil blends start with some herding ability and next to zero sponge and recently even fewer wranglers are being sent to do the same job.    So you start with a dozen cowboys and zero cows but at the drive progresses you pick up cows along the way, but not cowboys. At some point you have more cows that the wranglers can handle and some leave the herd. Deposits. And the API has an acceptable number of cows they are willing to let loose. In the ideal world zero is the right number for he rancher but to the butcher....a few lost is fine. This cow is beat to death. Let's move on....   Solvency isn't something oils on the Walmart shelf care about AT ALL. Problem is, you motor does. Fuels driven varnish sticks rings and only a solvent can keep them in check. The bet is that the solids driven portion that plug the expander rings and the oil drain backs and VVT screens and AFM screens will be an issue long before varnish is. Not that it wont be but if they market well enough the consumer can be kept ignorant enough to either believe it is "normal" (A quart in 1 or 2K is normal) OR is kept at bay longer than the first owner is likely to hang on to the unit. Solvency cost money.    Now the OEM's have John Q. Public buffaloed into the belief that the number cows accumulated along the trail is a known and predictable CONSTANT. It isn't. Nor is the rate at which they crossed paths with them. Only the number of wrangles is constant. Or was. Each new generation of oil sees fewer and fewer of them.    So what happens when the number of cowboys is lower (lower TBN) with each seasons trail but the trial is longer (OCI) and the number of cows along that trail continues increase? (Conditions that promote deposits).    For awhile the blenders were on to something. Better bases are harder to degrade (fewer cows) but that was overtaken by a longer trail (OCI) and improved breeding (More cows) while continuing to reduce the cowboy staffing levels (TBN/Aniline #).    Marketing has been successful. We've fired most of the staff, cows breed line bunnies, the trail is ten times longer and we've convinced the boss his ranch is in better shape that it ever was.    That kids is just the cleaning side. The side few pay attention to.

      Looking for this part for my truck. They don't sell just that one piece and to get it you have to pay over $100 even used for the whole air tube. The piece the hose clamp snaps into that is held on by the screw and nut. If anyone has access to one please let me know.
