Thanks, Ed. The rear block on yours looks like a 6” lift? Would you be able to measure? Thank you.

Also, I see the rear lift on yours came with a stop extending out from the block to receive the axle bumper. Guess that’s missing from mine as well!

Finally getting around to lowering the truck. Front down to factory specs and rear lower by 2". Dual exhaust going in shortly. Any favorites when it comes to mufflers?

You can read a lot of other opinions too, on this site: https://www.bangshift.com/forum/foru...-vs-flowmaster
Many of them comment on the annoying drone of the Flowmasters that I experienced at highway speeds.

Give the 40's a chance, I run the 50's on my truck not bad at all on noise and drone, I'm considering 40's for a bit more aggressive sound, running 2 1/2 inch pipes.

Keep in mind your V-6 is a totally different animal when it comes to exhaust. I'd start with what you think would be a quieter muffler and run it 10,000 miles and see how loud it gets. A V-6 is kinda the worst of 4 cylinder and V-8 combined into one. Definitely not a smooth quiet in-line six. Think I'd run 2-1/2" pipe to the rear bumper. Your 305 V-6 needs the exhaust of a 396 V-8. It's a Big block minus two cylinders and wants to rev up under load. |
