edit-Ignore me, please.

Apparently late nights and school are killing my reading comprehension skills. Just noticed he said 4.2, not 4.6. :o

Since your cursed with the 4.2, I'd say stick with a SI/DO with either a Flowmaster or Flo-Pro muffler, stay away from straight through mufflers.

If it were me, I would probably leave it stock and just weld on a nice tip.

They are just messing with ya bud A lot of people don't care for custom exhuasts on V6's. I'm not gonna lie, neither do I as nothing will ever replace the sound of a V8 with duals to me. But as we stated, I would HIGHLY recommened some sort of chambered muffler to sound less ricey and hold a stronger idle and deeper tone

To make a V6 sound good, put hi-flow cats or run no cats, and run a SI/DO Flowmaster 40, or Flowmaster Super 44, that i'll admit doesn't sound too bad.
