Best sounding muffler ? What do you guys think is the best sounding muffler for a single exhaust on a late 59ab in a 40 P/U ?

Re: Best sounding muffler ? Ford tractor mufflers from 1953 and up. Tractor supply has the best price.

Re: Best sounding muffler ? I used a tractor muffler on a stock 36--looks like an original and sounds GREAT. it also came from tractor supply

Re: Best sounding muffler ? 10 years ago I replaced a rusted through muffler on my 35 fordor with a straight section of pipe until I could find an original domed end muffler like Ford used in 35. Never did find that muffler at a reasonable price, so I'm still running the straight pipe and it sounds good to me.

Re: Best sounding muffler ? nothing sounds better than duel straight pipes in my opinion

Re: Best sounding muffler ? I don't know what mufflers are on my '41 coupe, they don't have any name on them, but with the Reds headers they sound great to me. Whoever did the plumbing on my car did a good job, no weird bends or cob job, compared to others I have looked at through the years.

Re: Best sounding muffler ? I guess I'm the only one that likes a "stealth" truck. Mine is so quite that it's like a BMW motorcycle, you see it go by but don't hear it.

Re: Best sounding muffler ? Brockman Mellow Tones are my favorite. I have had Smithys too. I also like a nice quiet stock muffler on an original build car/truck. Whatever the muffler there is just something about the sound of a smooth running flathead that is music to my ears. Like a fine watch or well oiled sewing machine. There is nothing like it.

Re: Best sounding muffler ? Old style gutted muffler. Sweet and not loud and annoying.

Re: Best sounding muffler ? I have Porter mufflers and like them. Deep rumble but no drone on highway.

Re: Best sounding muffler ? I have duel Smitties on mine they are kinda loud but I like them.

Re: Best sounding muffler ? I just installed some glass packs from Summit on my 36 coupe today. It was the only place I found 1 3/4 inch inlet and outlet glass packs. they can be installed either direction, and one way is louder than the other. I chose the quiet way, but still make a good sound.

Re: Best sounding muffler ? Straight pipes for me as well. Not as loud as many would think and they sound terrific!
|
Re: Best sounding muffler ? The engine block is the muffler on a flathead!

Re: Best sounding muffler ? I used two 24" glass packs. Like 2manycars, I went with 1 3/4" dual pipes. Nice tone right from the start, they get better with age.
