Hello Bullitthead,
Thanks for the notes. Yes, I have the 455 with headers. I know the noise level is subjective but I'm trying to get the 60s/70s hotrod rumble-at-idle toned down a bit. When I am at speed I don't hear the engine or exhaust much if at all (my fan clutch is another story). At idle or low speed going through the neighbourhood you definitely know I am there. I've always liked the stealth approach. This beast is not stealth. Ha! If it were a 64 Corvette I'd be happy. I'm just sensitive to others when starting the machine. The mufflers should still be good as they were recent but the PO did mention he liked the hotrod sound and may have chosen "louder" mufflers. I'll look into the resonator approach. Like I said, I may also be used to my 4Runner with 4 cat converters, a muffler and a resonator!! Thanks for the info.
