I've had both cherries and flowmasters on my vehicles and it really comes to preference. Personally, I love the cherry bombs, they feel free flowing and really aggressive but not everyone wants that. Some people like the moderate sound of a nice chambered exhaust note and a subtle cruising tone (which is nice on long trips) but My vote goes to the cherries

i got a super 40 muffler years back and liked the deeper note it gave. id been around flo pro exhaust many times working at a repair shop and liked their quality and prices are good. for my small block i stuck some flo pro super v mufflers on it and they get alot of compliments. the only thing is they hide the cam chop a little but if you know what your hearing you know its got a nice cam. but the delta chamber scatters the cam pops and they ding and ting around in the muffler you just get big low booms out of the tail pipe. no real exhaust drone on the road and you can talk comfortably with the windows up or down. but when you step on it everyone comes running cause it sounds like monster jam. its a very unique sound on the roads.

Glass packs flow & sound so much better than any Flowmasters (aka: slowmasters) do on old muscle cars. Slowmasters stifle the power down like any other turdo muffler does as anyone who runs at the track see's on their time stamp when compared. My old 69 Superbee set off car alarms just by me driving by them...lol I loved that ride & if I knew gas was going to todays levels I would have kept it for sure. Gas over $3 a gal while only getting 6mpg sucked the fun right out of it.. What a blast though.

Here's a wild exhaust idea for anyone that's interested. Have your 2.5" true duals met into a Y-collector (dual 2.5" inlets into single 3"outlet), then put on your 3" muffler of choice, into a 3.75" single exhaust the dumps down, just before the rear axle. I used a Summit Racing glasspack muffler when I did this on an old Ford van I used to have.
