Thats what is on mine right now, despite my initial dissapointment of it not being as quiet as I expected, it was actually a tad quieter than my bigass Magnaflow.
But when money allows, my experimentation will continue.

i have everything clamped up right now so I can switch at will.
Next step for the magnaflow setup, is an 18" long 5x11" case on the up side in front of the axle.
I would also like, to try the resonators from Solo and Vibrant.
My aim is to be whisper quiet, but still wide open...even if its just interior noise.
Sorry for the Hijack.

305, headers, dynomax exhaust, Hooker mufflers... I really like this setup, nice rumble, but really sounds great when you open the throttle.

350, headers, home brewed exhaust that exits at the rear axle, basic turbo mufflers... too quiet and don't care for it much.

454, stock, stock, stock... way too quiet!!

454, headers, 3" duals to Flowmaster mufflers, 2.5" tailpipes out the back with chrome tips... very deep and powerful sounding, not too loud in the truck, but very loud if you're behind it.

I like those Hooker mufflers more than any muffler I've ever run, but I do like Flowmasters on a big block and good ole glasspacks on a smallblock too. I like the exhaust to exit at the rear.

It's a crush-bent Dynomax dual exhaust kit (comes without mufflers) with Hooker Aerochamber mufflers.

Manifolds, 2.5 inch pipe, glasspacks, bent out to the corners of the box with 3.5 inch tips. To loud though, sometimes I feel bad about starting it up in the mornings.

Jeg's. I recommend the Hooker exhaust though, it fit's a little better and has mandrel bends. When we bought the Dynomax exhaust, I thought the Hooker kit had been discontinued. But on the other hand, if it's just a weeny 305 like mine, the Dynomax crush bends really won't matter.

I'd rather hear a rumbling V-8 then a damn rooster

I'd rather hear a rumbling V8 than an alarm clock :)
