Has anyone installed a Flowmaster Force II System 17328 on a 6.0 x-tra cab HD.

 

I have been warned about possible in-cab resonance w/ Flowmaster.  :crackup:

 

 

 

 

 

Most any setup will resonate. You almost need to get a SUV type muffler setup. My setup resonates, but i get way better milage now...

 

Most people say that exhast wont be too loud, but some dont understand that resonance is like a deep base that bugs your inner ear to death. I reaserched it to death, and It still resonates. I may go have a resonater put on...dunno yet though..

i have flowmaster on my truck, and the sound is awesome! it rumbles like a harley. as for in the cab, i guess it resonates, but how can you have a monster rummble and not hear it somewhat. you either want a soft sound or a killer sound. to me, the louder the better! :crackup:

Thanks, the inner ear resonance is what I,m worried about. I pull a camper quite often in the good weather months, and I don,t waant to listen to that for a long haul.

I have a flowmaster SUV 50 Series Dual inlet single 3" outlet with 4" tailpipe tip on a 02 crewcab with a 6.0l and the resonance in the truck towing is another story. Towing 6500lbs it has certain speeds that it is much worse I find it at about 65mph as well as climbing large hills on the highway but pick-up the speed to 75mph and the sound of the exhaust goes away almost completly when cruising but always comes back on large climbes when the motor has to work harder. Over all it is really nothing to complain about or change the system, and the differance in the truck is to impressive to bother. :crackup:

I have the Force II setup on an '03 8.1 crew long and it's a little louder in the cab at highway speeds than I would like. I wouldn't call it resonating but you can hear it. It sounds good at low speeds but I wish it went away over 60 mph, it doesn't.

love my flowmaster 50's. i agree that there is going to be some interior noise regardless of setup. i like flowmaster and have recommended them to others with confidence.

I love how the Flowmasters sound as well. I am thinking about eventually getting this kit for my 2500HD. It seems like a good kit for the money and the install seems pretty straight forward. A little interior nosie is going to happen with most aftermarket exhausts anyway. I think that is part of the reason for getting one, so you can hear it...

 

I miss the Flowmaster rumble, it has been a long time sense I have had a vehicle with an aftermarket exhaust on it. I used to have a true dual setup on an old K5 Blazer I had and that thing sounded awesome. It had dual 40 series 2 chamber Flowmasters on it without converters. The Flowmaster rumble was just beautiful... :devil:

      Gas Prices

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.

      Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.

      Correct.  2019-2021 model years are serviced by a different p/n.  19420611.  Recall 2021s use 19420611.   The recall engines 2022-2024 model years are serviced with 12740076.     The difference between 19420611 and 12740076 is GM changed injector size for 2022.  The injectors are smaller on 12740076 with smaller injector bores in the cylinder heads to match the smaller injectors.  So you can't install a 19420611 in a 2022-2024, and you can't install a 12740076 in a 2019-2021.     Both engines are the replacement engine p/ns that are in the L87 recall.  So both of these are the updated engines.     Here's a version of the L87 recall with the p/ns for all the parts needed.    RCRIT-25V274-7075.pdf   Note it shows 19420611 and 12740076 with an asterisk to a footnote "Use the VIN and the GM Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) to determine which part to order if two or more part numbers are listed for the same part, as it may vary by vehicle options."

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.
