Mufflers on a Nailhead?

Just about to the point of firing my 425 and wasn't sure what to expect as far as moror sound. This is in My Riviera and I don't want a bunch of noise but want a slight rumble. Loud exhaust on a rivi is just not right. Thanks Keith

 

I ran straight pipes on my '63 and it was wayyy too loud, the drone in the car gave you an instant headache. Even a gl***pack or 40 series flowmaster would be too loud IMHO

 

Porter mufflers are cool (and trad).

 

Goerlich xcelerators , then pick a resonator for the tailpipe.
Longer the resonator the quieter it gets

 

I run 36" Gl***pak's on my wagon, gives it a nice mellow tone.

 

2nd on the porters

 

Gl*** packs are going to be noisy,,you would be better of with some sort of steel muffler,stock style. HRP

 

You could run FlowMaster 50 series delta flow -mellow tone and they bark when you get on it. Not a lot of interior resonance.
Or the Porters with stock style resonators if you find them too harsh for a cruiser.

 

Use the stock Rivi muffler without the resonators, I did this to mine and like the understated sound .

 

Thanks for the info. Looks like Porters will do the trick.

In my 63 Riviera I'm running duals 2 1/4 pipes into HP2 muflers from flowmaster, nice low rumble at idle driving and really sound off when hard on the gas.

 

Here's a 425 powered Merc with Porter Mufflers:

Smithy's or gl*** packs or cadillac reverse flow mufflers. Choose one and be happy.

 

A good old fashioned Walker "Turbo" Muffler should get you what you're looking for...
