Default Magnaflow Update

Well it been a while since the new magnaflow pipes were installed on my 74 454. And I have to say its one of the best things that have been done to my car. #1 they look really good from the back and sound great at lower speeds not to loud just enough to let you know that its a big block.
at fwy speeds and higher they quite down and you can hear the radio and talk to your passenger. seems like there is less heat in the cab too. Some of you will remenber that one of the cars had a brake pully that had a problem. I checked mine and I have not had any problems at all I definitely had an improvement in air flow and an increase in HP. Due to other problems with the old pipes. We can not say how much But I can feel the difference.
Well thats all folks THANKS TO MAGNAFLOW AND RICHARD FOR THE GREAT EXHAUST SYSTEM.
