I have a sound bite of my 454's exhaust
with 40 series flows and the H-pipe. Email me if anyone wants
it.

[Chevelle-list] Flowmaster's 30 series or 40 delta flow series > Big Block = 70's !
I
talked to the sales manager that was at CB03 about this in depth ...he asked a
lot of questions about my car,but basically it came down to making sure the
mufflers matched the need. For a big block he recommended the 70's. He seemed to
think they would have a better flow to handle a big block output. Those baby's
are huge. Bought a pair but not on yet.
I have
also read that you don't want to go too big on the pipes.for a street car
big block everything I read said 2.5 is the way to go. Not if you have a strip
car strictly performance/highly modified...then maybe go 3 inches, but I
have read where too large for a street engine will cause a loss in
torque.
My 396
will get the 70's and 2.5 inch pipe with an X pipe up front.which
unfortunately at last check Flowmaster didn't make or sell.

yea, there is 4 inches diff. in the two
sizes, the motor is a stock 396 with hooker headers, the exhaust
on it now is "original" and has a few holes in the pipes behind the
mufflers. also the exhaust will run out the back to the bumper a full
system.., no turn downs. I will prob. stay with the 30's, buy the
way I am looking at a 2.5in system.

The
biggest difference between the 30 and 40 series is the physical dimensions
of the muffler itself. 50 series are the same physical size as the 30
series, but are quieter. I have 50s on a SBC and they sound great IMO. I am
glad I didnt get the louder ones.

on
their system guide they recommend the 30 series for chevelle, GTO/lemans,
buick gs and the 40 delta flow for a camaro, mustang,
firebird. Hmm, most of the camaro,mustangs I know have small
blocks, my chevelle is a BB. Does anyone have BB with 40's on
it. How does it sound, flowmaster only gives SB examples on their web
site. thanks.

Re: [Chevelle-list] Flowmaster's 30 series or 40 delta flow series
I have a 454, with 40 series mufflers...2.5 inch exhaust, with a H-Pipe. I really like the sound, sounds clean and nice. They sound great at idle, but they really open up when you step on it. I do have it recorded, but its really distorted, and doesnt sound anything like it. I love the soundthe H-pipe helps in that its a even soundAny questions, feel free to ask. -Tim-1966 Chevelle
RE: [Chevelle-list] Flowmaster's 30 series or 40 delta flow series
Ditto that! I had 30's on my SBC stroker motor and recently went to 50's. Still loud and mean, but not quite the open pipe sound of before. :) -Original Message-From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of John NastaSent: Thursday, October 30, 2003 1:22 PMTo: The Chevelle Mailing ListSubject: RE: [Chevelle-list] Flowmaster's 30 series or 40 delta flow series The biggest difference between the 30 and 40 series is the physical dimensions of the muffler itself. 50 series are the same physical size as the 30 series, but are quieter.

Re: [Chevelle-list] Flowmaster's 30 series or 40 delta flow series
You think the X pipe is much better than the H pipe? or about the same? - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 30, 2003 1:00 PM Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] Flowmaster's 30 series or 40 delta flow series Hi Guys, I recently bought original flows 40 series for my 383 equipped 65 elky. I have dyno max headers, 2 1/2" pipes, a Dr gas X pipe with outlets just after the rear wheels and it sounds perfect. I had a set of Summit turbos on this car with the same setup.too loud..lots of resonance, I replaced them with Dynomax super turbostoo quiet...couldn`t even hear the rump of the camswitched to the present 40`s expecting resonance, and was totally surprised that is is minimal. The X pipe has a lot to do with it, I think the X pipe is an investment well worth the money. I now have what I believe is the perfect exhaust note. You can hear all the rump of the cam, excellent sound outside the vehicle and just righjt inside. The best part is the 40`s are all over ebay for about $45 delivered. just my $.02. Bob Myers, SD

Re: [Chevelle-list] Flowmaster's 30 series or 40 delta flow series
Are you set on flowmasters? I personally don't car for them much... horsepower suckers. The 30's are supposedly their redesign "high Performance" line. I haven't heard them, but would be real interested to see how they do. The 40's series is a pretty loud 2 chamber. If you have an semi agressive BBC they will roar... but obviously sound is detirminant on many factors like combo, exhaust size, exhaust design, etc. The 50's series would be a bit more mellow... 70's series is mellower yet. Hard to say what muff to choose not knowing your combo and personal tastes. My motors are usually pretty extreme (at least that is what the locals say LOL) and I grew out of the louder is better phase a long time ago. I still really like the Dynomax and the Hooker Mufflers. They are among the best in terms of preserving HP on a dyno and are cheaper then the flowmasters. Bang for the buck... I love the DynoMax Turbo muffs. Not obnoxiosly loud, but enough growl to let people know you are there :) Not sure what size you want... but I have a set of 2 1/2 Rhino Mufflers lying around. Used for about 20 passes. They are similar to the flowmaster 40's, but are better performance wise. They really growl nice on the throttle.
