Alkoholik: Pretty sure your pipe diameter is 2.25 same as my 93 was. but still doesn't hurt to measure it

Wrong. If its 2.25" get a 2.25" glasspack. Keep it all 1 size, tip size dont matter as long as the inlet is 2.25". Piping that goes to large to small messes with the system too much and can cause a loss in low end torque.

What town ya located in down there?

Thrush glasspacks are better mufflers than the Cherry Bomb 'packs anyway...my opinion.
Thrush uses a perforated core instead of the louvered core in the CB. Less backpressure and the noise levels are the same given the same length mufflers.
The last pair of Thrush packs on my van lasted 8 years before they rusted away...good enough for me for the money I paid for em.

NAPA will probably have a few choices in the catalog too.
I live in huron. I went to advance, and didn't see any on the floor, so wondering if they keep em behind the counter or something. Didn't bother to ask yet, since they were kinda busy, so I will just go back later on and check with them.

O ok. New to this, so I wasn't sure how it all worked. Thanks again
