If you are going to re do it all dual 3" when both sides are equal is how you will make it sound most like a vette. 4x4 guys can't accomplish that as we have to Y pipe it to the pass side.

Jesus those welds are making my eyes cry like an onion. I wasn't that bad the first day I picked up TIG.

Haha Im sure its better then anything I could whip up. So im pretty set on just doing dual 3" on the passenger side, basically mirroring the single 3 I have now, and running two magnaflow 14" round mufflers

i'm running 1&7/8 ARH on a 5.3 with 9psi so my vote goes to the larger primaries.
