I have a 68 C10 SB Fleetside with a 4.8 stock LS engine and Hooker Super Comp long tube headers and a Flowmaster American Thunder system. Just a cruiser, not interested in big power. It's very noisy to the point where you can't listen to the radio on the highway. I'd like to tone it down in the cab and have been thinking of putting some shorty headers on it. I have a pair of Patriot stainless shorties or was thinking of some cast iron manifolds from Summit or Patriot. This will require me to reconfigure the exhaust and relocate the cats. I want it to be quieter in the cab but my concern is I don't want to kill the already limited power It has. Opinions or suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks
Jim
