60s sounding glass packs?

[33 IMP]

When I had to install mufflers or go to jail, I tried cut-outs from JC Whitney. I was a poor mechanic when I was 16 and they were flimsy. I bailed on the idea.

I had one of those too. (Single exhaust 55 chevy). If I remember, it had a sheet of asbestos packing too. I didn't even try to install it.

I couldn’t wait for the glass packs to blow out.

Remember putting gasoline in them and lighting them to burn out the packing ?
Crazy stuff we did as kids...

I put cherry bombs on my 67 R/T in 1984 ,when they were re-offered for sale back then. I blew all the glass out of them in the first week they were on the car. A 3 minute sprint on the parkway at a "high but respectful rate of speed" took care of that. They're still on the car with the factory pipes. Last Sunday I started the car after 18 years and after refreshing the fuel system brakes and suspension. They still sound killer...

It’s tempting to put a set of glass packs on my GTX but I think a neighbor kid who removed the mufflers on his newer Mustang GT has sort of stressed out the neighbors for loud cars lately. He starts it on remote start with an enormous roar and the lets it idle for 10 minutes before driving off in an equally loud roar. I’ve had several newer Mustangs with loud but mellow sounding systems including a GT350 with the active exhaust. But his car is a bit obnoxious sounding. Not sure how he managed that.

God yes, I don't know what they do with those new Mustangs.They can break your ear drums.

Agree. I haven't heard a single late model fuel injected muscle car (poor term, but I don't know what else to call em)with loud pipes that sounds good, even the really powerful ones.
