I have hooker headers on a 350 and I got super 44 and I am wondering where to place the muffs along the pipe. Ive read a little bit and most say it doesn't matter where you place them. I am planning on dumping it at the rear bumper. Not really worried about noise. 1985 k10 shortbox

If you're not worried about noise you can put them anywhere, if you want to be able to hear others in the truck, the radio and not have a headache after driving it, you will mount them behind the cab under the bed somewhere.

As much as I love the sound of my truck, I also enjoy the radio once in awhile and talking to a passenger if I have one. The freeway is pretty darned loud too! All in all, I'd just make sure they're behind the cab...

I've got a pair of true-dual Super 44s with tail pipes that come out at the bed corners on my crew dooley. The flowmasters are very noisy/droney mufflers so you want them as far back as possible. Mine are mounted just behind the cab (keep in mind this is a crew) and the drone was TERRIBLE until I went ape-**** on the insulation. That helped quite a bit. So if you were to place them under the cab... ouch. Expect your teeth to rattle.

I too have the same setup you do but cheap long tubes. Mine are true duals with no cats and flowmaster super 44s. Yes they are very loud and droney and maybe i shoulda put them under the box farther but i love hearing my truck. Also mine dump at an angle right b4 the rear under the box. Here are a few pics. The first one you can see my exhaust leaning up against the bed, thats the whole exhaust both sides just to give u an idea how far from the collectors mine are.

:happy175: I hafta be able to get them to smoke first lol but anyway i did turn them on more of an angle but not straight down because the 90° is too long and i think theyd hit when bounced
