see when it comes to exhaust...we need soundclips. I've thought of chambered exhaust too. wanna know how it sounds on a vette first, particularly a 70.

well these are some sound clips for various V-8s but no chevy small blocks. I does give you an idea of how loud they sound though. I would say the charger had the closest sound to my vette in those samples. Classic chambered

sound clips are scratchy as hell. I might rethink the sidepipes idea, I'm not sure...they look cool as hell. however, my favorite exhaust sound is...go to www.borla.com, click on "hear it now", and select V8 muscle. ooohhh beautiful!

oh yes, and those spiral mufflers sound pretty good during that rev.
