Spintech mufflers suck

I got a fully built 350 in my 89 bird, and the exhaust sounds horrible! I spent 1100 on hedman ceramic coated long tubes, a spintech muffler, and a custom full 3" exhaust and it sounds just as weak as the 305 originally in the car with a stock muffler! It sounds like a v6!

Anyone else have a bad experience with spintechs? Everyone creams themselves over spintechs online but I feel ripped off

Re: Spintech mufflers suck

I'm thinking I might actually have a misfire and am unfairly blaming spintech. Runs real good for a 7 cylinder though

I've got a pair of spintech super pro streets on my '88 c4 with longtubes, x pipe into 2.5 duals and they sound amazing.

They are my favorite too, I have never had one that didn't sound downright awesome.

I've been real happy with my Hooker, but I've had several friends with Spintech and they all loved them.

Re: Spintech mufflers suck

What muffler did you use? They make a bunch of different types in different sound levels.
