Would it be crazy loud if I just ran straight pipes out the back from the headers?

I don't have a huge amount of experience with exhaust options and outcomes, so I was wondering if (for a big block street car) it would be crazy loud just to run straight pipes out the back, or if I should have a muffler in between just to make the sound lower n a bit muffled, or?

Don't wanna get pulled over for blowing people's ear drums out, but I wanna hear the exhaust too... Any suggestions, insights, experience, or pic/videos???

(I am running Shumacher headers up front attached to a 383, stockish stealths, xe 4.88 lift, 2800, 727, 8 3/4, 3.23...)

Summit or Jegs sell exhaust kits that are easy to install and require little to no modification. Some kits include mufflers and some do not. If you opt. for a kit without mufflers, then choose your own mufflers.

The mufflers sizes are listed in the parts descriptions. 1 off set, 1 center. High flowing and reasonably quite mufflers would be Hooker Aero Chambers of Dyno Max Suoer Turbos.
The mufflers I reviewed from my kits from Summit and Jegs are very good sound wise.
