I have finally gotten the Smithy mufflers, from the Flathead Fifties era, I bought installed and they are GREAT!!!!

I have placed some pictures and before and after sound bites on my Prowler website at www.hondos.net/prowler then select "My Kat". At the bottom of the pictures is a link to the exhaust changes with links to the RealPlayer sound.

Fred,

Thanks for giving us the info. I don't know if it's for me, but it SURE is a good price. It's about time someone found an INEXPENSIVE upgrade. Any idea if the muffs are giving you a tiny boost in power, or are they strictly for sound? Thanks again.

JUST JP, I haven't really gotten into it yet but already I have had several people who know the car, come over and ask if I had the engine redone??? This is just from the deeper sound and if I down shift it really has a nice low poping sound... I used to have a 1950 Ford flathead with Smithy's and this sounds just like it.

The only thing I have noticed is that the engine revs up a bit quicker, that much I can tell.

By the way, to anyone who may visit my site to hear the exhaust sound bites, I found that if you turn down your bass on your speaker system, the difference is much clearer.

Fred,

I'll have to try that bass turn down as you suggested. I'm at work right now, don't have any speakers. I like the idea of people asking what you had done. That's definitely a good sign. I like the idea of sounding like I have a V8, if that's not too optimistic.
