I am redoing the exhaust as part of my engine replacement and I am trying to decide if I want something a little louder. The mufflers that were on it I only installed a few years back. they were generic parts store turbo type mufflers. They gave a nice low rumble but were not very loud. My Mustang has glass packs and they are to loud for the Galaxie as it is a cruiser, but listening to the way it sounds right now with just headers makes me think I may want something a little louder than the turbo mufflers. So what are you running how does it sound and how loud is it??

Daze, I'm runnin' Magna-Flows that are 18" long with 2&1/2 inlet and outlet on my 445 64' Gal. They are throaty at idle and I don't know how they sound going down the road as I haven't allowed any other drivers. I do know that the x-pipe makes a nice F-1 type sound at 4 to 5k rpms. Don

I have glasspacks with no H pipe on my 65 Galaxie running a 289. Pretty loud for a cruiser.

Running the classic Flowmasters behind a couple FE's, they sound great, my Bronco has a Magnaflow which also sounds really good. My 61 Galaxie has like 3 foot long glasspacks and it's way too quiet. I'd run open exhaust if I could get away with it. Guess you have to be a Harley owner to get those perks.

on the 390 in my Galaxie. My Grandma would love it if she was still alive. I have Flowmasters on the 460 in my 4x4, but I have heard they rob power on the bigger motors. I love the sound of them though. Flowmasters on my 5.0, but they are a different style than the truck and much quieter for daily driving.
