Default Glass Packs?

Have any of you installed Thrush Glass Packs or any glasspack for that matter on your C3s? What do you think of them?

Any advice?

Default Glass packs.

I have them on mine. They were on there when I bought it. I don't think they are Thrush brand though.
I don't really care for the sound of them on the Corvette or any car. But that's just my personal taste.
But if you like them, go for it. They really open up the space in the rear quarter panels for reaching up in there.

My biggest problem with them is the occasional popping or crackling I get with them on deceleration.
I hate that!
Could be a rich/lean carburetor problem though. Seems to me I've heard other car with glass packs do that too.
Hope this information helps. If want to know something more specifically let me know.
