I have a 3" Magnaflow setup on my LS2 in my Chevelle and I love it. Flowmasters are to tinnie for me.

I've used Edelbrocks and Hookers Aero Chambers recently and I like booth of them.

Nice low rumble.

flowmaster 40 series deltas. regular 40s are too much. the deltas sound really good. i went 50 deltas but may modify them to 40s if they are too quiet.

Go to youtube and listen to as many soundclips as you can. Or listen in person if possible.

I will say I finally heard a setup of Magnaflows that I actually liked. Full 3" exhaust behind a 600hp SBC. Quiet rumble at idle but nasty at WOT.

I prefer in your face loud Spintechs for now.

I had the Flowmaster DeltaFlow 40's on my BBC. It had a great rumble at idle but didn't sound so great at WOT. I swamped out for Magnaflows and like the sound a bit better. A little quieter at idle but then sounds a little 'sportier' at WOT if that makes sense. I'm running a 3" exhaust, X-pipe, and 2.5 tail pipes.
