V6 Exhaust on a V8?

I have a dilemma. I just bought a new OEM V6 catback exhaust system - but I recently have been playing around with the idea of keeping my Firebird V8 instead. (I think the engine has been rebuilt)

Can I put the stock V6 muffler and pipes on the V8? Or should I just use the new pipes, sell the muffler, and get a flowmaster muffler?

How would the V6 muffler sound on the Formula?

Ok its not really a dilemma.

And its a dumb question - i guess the pipes would be ok to use but not the muffler.
