Exhaust Drone Fix

I was seriously thinking about cutting the cats off my truck but didn't want to because it would be so loud and drone so badly. I like the Magnaflow mufflers because they are stright through but they seem to drone alot. I will seriously try this and see what happens.
Sounds like open pipes or an old ChrisCraft...

After I gutted the cats on my '99 rc 5.3 w/ si/so 5x12x18 magnaflow the drone was terrible. Took a trip to Omaha the next day it was unbearable between 1800-2200 rpm. Ended up wearing ear plugs on my trip. Once I got back I ended up recutting the hollowed cats and welding a pipe that ran through the cat shell. It reduced the drone considerably!
Soon their after I installed a set of catless LT's w/ a si/so 5x12x22 magnaflow while I was under there, work end result was a quiet drone less exhaust.
Good Luck!
I think those were the right dimensions of the mufflers.

I dont know if i posted this a while ago, but there was another forum that was going over this topic about resonance or drone. http://forums.corral.net/forums/show...ight=resonance You can read about what they tried and what did or did not work before you try anything yourself. Hope you can find some info to help.
