That's more like it. I remember thinking that I could have cut mine out and slid in the 24 if I'd have gotten that one instead. Missed that the series was different.

I guess mine is special then, because I think I can read a tape measure.

Sorry but straight pipe sounds like ***! That's a sure fire way to let everyone know how much power you really DO NOT have, no cam, no compression ect. If there is a sound that irritates more peoples GAG reflex, it's straight pipes...

On both of my trucks I kept coming close to putting the Bullets on them, but I always back out and try something different. My Chevy it was the Super 44s, my F150 its the 11" Magnaflows. When I change to different mufflers i'm going to give the 12" bullets a try.

Loud. Not obnoxious and ear killing loud, it is a Ford modular V8 . I'm expecting to be very similar to my old Silverado's sound, heavy deep note, with a straight pipe rev. My Magnaflows sound like straights when past 3500rpm, i'm imagining the Bullets to sound so at 2500rpm, and have a better sounding idle similar to a Flowmaster.

It may happen, I'm probably going to tell these Super 44s pretty soon, I dont think i'm going to waste my time with them.
