OK, see if you can pull it up from here...

There should be 2 clips there - one is a quick run through the gears, top up, windows closed.... so that's as quiet as it gets. I couldn't really get into it hard because I was trying to hold the camera. The second is idling in the driveway - you can hear about 1/3 of the way into it when I open the car door. Again, these are the Hooker Max-Flows on a small block. I would imagine a big block would be even louder. Sorry there's no picture - it's dark by the time I get home. Hopefully you can pull them up!

Really like that deep tone. The thunders seem tinny in comparison, at least to my ear. I've got a set of Max-Flows on my wish list to replace the glass packs behind my BB.

I, too, think they look GREAT!! 
I've always wanted sidepipes on my Vette, but since I'm short, I've been kinda worried about burning my leg getting out of the car. Is there maybe some kind of shielding that will help? Or should I just give up my dream of sidepipes??

Dean, your shields are beautiful!! I do have a question about how these things work. Looks to me that the heat would just transfer from the pipes to the shields - or is the heat dissipated through the cut-outs?
