Default Muffler Question

Are the stock LT1 mufflers considered as fairly low restriction mufflers?

They arent bad, not near as restrictive as the L98's is.

I'd say they are very low restriction. My best run with the mufflers was 13.07, my best without the mufflers was 12.97, but I also took off close to 150 lbs.

But I also slowed down 2 mph removing the mufflers.
