Thanks for all your suggestions...
I decided to go with the mfg. recommendations so here is what we did:
1977 SB with Headers
2 1/2" piping.
1 7/8" H-Pipe.
Classic Chambered Exhaust's POWERSTIX, 20".
http://www.classicchambered.com/
Sounds deep and powerful at IDLE. Very nice. Added as set of gahoochies to say the least. This alone was worth the upgrade.
Fantastic powerful deep tone at cruise and in-town driving. Makes a SB sound much bigger!
WOT is deep tone + a raspy gurgle and a volume level to wake the dead. Use sparingly.
From the front, you hear very little of the volume but you get a nice deep tone. From the driver's perspective, you hear deep tones and feel the massage of the exhaust. From the rear of the car.... a quick pump of the gas pedal will get that tailgater off you a$$ in a split second. Like a double barrel shotgun.
Overall... very happy and I finally got the ***** (volume wise) from my SB that I knew was there.
No popping or after fire.
Will report later on drone, but nothing to report as far as a noticeable change in power loss/gain.

Those are the same compnents I have, but I don't have a pass through crossmember and both of my chambers are side by side not far behind the collectors. I love the sound as well, and my exhaust points straight out the back with chrome slashcut tips, talk about aiming a shotgun at the people behind me! Your setup looks good! :O)

Muffled LS7, 454
this also has 3" race mufflers underneath exiting at the tire cleaning the ground tract in front of the tire.....It actually quiets down while driving except at a stop where the noise bounces off other cars and then becomes quite obnoxious.....For pure street I would prefer the Walker Dynomax

Actually.... what surprises me is the old geezer in the expensive hot rod that has it muffled down like a mini van.
Wonder if it will trigger when a cop car goes by with the siren going?

Would like to hear your gear drive, what brand is it?
