I've run dump pipes like that before, the drone is terrible and it picks up a lot of dust. These days I run a dual 2.5 inch all the way to the back bumper, with Redback mufflers, and added a balance pipe. Without the balance pipe it was to loud on the highway and had a horrid crackle under power. Highly recommend a quadrajet instead of the holley. Put a kit though it, do the throttle shaft bushes if it needs it. You seam smart enough to tune it and get it working right, and once you do you'll never use a holley on a street car again.

You've got to get the pulleys 100% in alignment or it will fling the belts off. The right exhaust can be street drivable without a certain unwanted attention provided you don't provoke it But wide open throttle with a Motor like mine, you're Gunna here it blocks away

The current set up even just at idle is too loud and doesn't sound nice.

Nothing worst than a V8 droning at crusing speeds! I had the same issue in my 5 litre VS had to fix the exhaust, it was unbearable around town and sounded like crap.

Yes people come up to me and say sounds awsome never change the exhaust. They dont have to drive it, personally im not keen on the flowmaster muffler sound.

Standard heads + close to standard cam = standard carburettor, or close to standard CFM. That double pumper Holley is basically too big. A 600 Holley would be plenty. A 465 would be mint ( if you can find one) and provide good overall duel economy. Just my 2 cents

Dual feed Vacuum secondarys on it atm, I have bumped the comp up to around 10:1 with a set of flattops. Also have some 64cc double hump heads on it. Cam is 230@50 on a 108 i think, so its not completely standard. But i do agree the carburettor is not the best match.

Use Vibrant Ultra Quiet Resonators before the Flomasters mate. It will sound mint. Trust me. If you can convert the leaf springs to coil springs, it will be much more comfortable.
