It topped out at 7900ish actually. It's just a little 226/230 .605 lift. Wasn't intended to be spinning that fast but was built to survive such mishaps.

I don't think it was making a lot of power at that RPM, the TCC was unlocked and letting it float. Trap was only 99mph in 2nd gear.

The competition was a pretty stock El Camino that was running time trials later that evening.

I like the Flowmaster 10 series mufflers, so maybe I'll run two of them on a custom dual setup. That should be pretty loud I'd imagine.
The Super 10s are a pretty aggressive muffler, so if you like loud, they’ll get you there. If you have a specific sound you’re trying to achieve, you can always give our Tech Line a call at 707-544-4761 and our techs can help you select the right parts for your sound preferences and truck.

I'm still here! Nothing is "too loud" to me. I love it all as long as it sounds good to my ears.

Unfortunately, we do not offer a direct-fit pipe kit for the 99-06 Silverado 2500 6.0L. We do offer a number of mandrel bends and universal pipe kits ranging from 2.50" to 4.00", which you could use to fabricate a custom tailpipe setup.

If you have any questions or would like help figuring out what you need, give us a call at 707-544-4761.

Soooo like a 6500lb 2500HD stock 6.0L with catless long tubes and corsa sport? Im that guy right now!

Id say that my setup is loud outside of the truck. In a tunnel youd swear theres a race car in there. But inside with the windows up is almost unbelievable how quiet it is. Even at WOT.

I like it.

And itll like the VVT1 cam that its getting soon!

Too loud for me is drone in the interior, sharp tones accelerating and having to put up my window because the car next to me at a stoplight makes me want to punch a puppy.
