Mines a 5.3 with dual exit pipes. I had all of the resonators covered on this video. I don’t have accounts to post the video anywhere and kinda don’t want to create one so if you want to message me your email, I’ll send it that way.

Ok so I’ve waited wayyy to long to do any mods to my truck because I almost got rid of it. Now that it looks like I may be keeping it I’m trying to decide to delete or change muffler. I’ve heard/watched plenty of videos but really couldn’t get a good idea on how the delete sounds at highway cruising. I’ve been on my back for quite some time due to surgeries and I now have that itch. Time to treat myself. For the guys with the delete, is it really loud? And does it drone bad? Last, are you still happy with it or is it too much now? Thanks for your input

No thats a bonus.

I agree.  The wife's  Camaro SS with a stock exhaust does that.  Sounds great!

My 2001 Z71 would do this if I downshifted, so I downshifted....A lot.

 

Unfortunately with cam phasers this wont work on my AT4.

2019 Sierra 5.3. I have clamped the flapper open and taped/covered the screens up. I am super happy with the sound and have been asked what exhaust I was running. They are surprised when I tell them it is factory exhaust lol. The only thing I do not like is that you can see the tape through the fender well when standing beside the truck.

How do you clamp the flapper open?

    • I find it amusing the OP doesn’t realize this threads heading includes several engines. He should have posted in the off topic section if he wanted a more narrow focus. I really appreciate and find amusing that he actually pointed out one of my many vehicles. The Odyssey. That happens to use 0-20 oil. I love pushing his buttons. 
    • Maybe, but it seems he is the only one that has backed up data to prove what he is stating. I think he is doing this more because he enjoys it and wants to get the information out to us. He's got the knowledge and access to the proper equipment and having the funds doesn't hurt.  I would love to do what he is doing and would do it if and when I hit the Powerball.  I'm not a Tribologist by any means but love to learn what I can.   I would bet there would be doubting people out there if a completely independent lab with high quality work and highly respected in the automotive industry, put out information like this.  The world can't be pleased, one just has to take the information that they are given, do more of their own research to find actual lab data to back up what they are trying to figure/find out.  Most don't bother, they just want to believe what they first see.     I don't have the minimax but my 6.2 in my 2019 Silverado with 64k miles shows excellent UOA results with 0w-20 and for my own purposes 5w-20.  Since not much of a change using 5w. I liked the data sheet information on the SS 5w-20 and figured I would give it a try.  Still the same viscosity at 100℃.   In the end we all just do what makes us happy, life is too short to get upset over trivial social media.   On a side note, I do feel GM has dropped the ball and just cares about the bottom dollar and not quality anymore.  "Like a Rock" has been long gone.  Seems "Built Ford Tough" has as well.
    • Better than stock but that's like putting lipstick on a pig
    • Hello, my 3 month old Sierra Elevation wont recognize a trailer with electric brakes? All the lights work correctly, but no power to the brakes?   This is the factory installed brake controller. If you manually push the knob, the display shows the power % but does not light up like my 2022 silverado.   I have an appointment with the dealer, but was checking to see if anyone else has seen this issue.    Thanks, 
    • Been using SS 0w-20 from new, but wanted to change to the 5w-20 because I liked the data on the data sheet, to me it seems like a little better product. But as you can see, not much difference. This is also with running a mix of 10 gallons E85 to a tank topped with 93. It isn't a flex fuel vehicle so any higher I get a CEL for running lean on both banks. Yes my mileage takes a hit. Instead of 20 mpg I normally get on trips I get 17mpg. This is also using EaO17 filter.  What is amazing is I have the AMSOIL cone filter on it since I have the GM Performance intake installed and that air filter has 44k miles on it.  I just take it out and shop vac it off once a year.  I use the upholstery tool on my shop vac.  Works well.
