I was posting earlier about deleting the mufflers on my 95, and a lot of people thought it was a bad idea. In any case, as delivered, I took video of both the 95 and the 85. I'm only posting the rear vids for now just to get them up here.
The 95 is an auto GT with cold air intake, 2.5 inch catback with muffler delete, and 99 cobra rims, fully loaded. Nothing special for mods, but a very clean awesome driver.
The 85 is decked with everything but needs paint, lol. She sports a 466 big block and TKO600 5-speed. Exhaust is manifolds, custom 2.5 mandrel bent offroad X-pipe, and MAC muffs with dumps.
Hope you like the vids, and if you like, I'll make a compilation with music. Peace out, Scot Rod
Its megaupload so just enter in the code and hit download and wait like 45 seconds.

The 85 sounds quiet cause my camera has this sound deadener when things get too loud. I have video right on the engine when I rev the carburetor with my hand, and you can barely hear it. Its funny, you can hear the car really well as you walk up to it, and then it dulls out as you get closer. The cam is a 230/230 duration cam with I think 540 lift. The compression is somewhere between 9.0 to 9.5. It does not play well with Regular. Trust me, when I drive it to work they can hear me from like 5 blocks away, and my neighbors hate me, lol.

Yeah mine sounds waaaaay different with the 234/244 cam 562/578 lift on 10.4: compression, through the LT headers, H pipe, and dynomax race bullets. Electric cutouts for the annoying factor.

I usually have to go with 92-93 octane. The race bullets sound perfect to me.

But that SN with no mufflers sounded good to me, maybe i just like louder v8s :)
