not difficult to recreate a reasonable facsimile thereof
And the guy is running a cammed 340 through it. It must work. What was his dial in? 14.00

My dad installed a factory take off “almost NOS” exhaust system on his 66 Barracuda Formula S, it sounds very cool and unique....but not that loud and nothing like the video. People always say a 273 Commando has a unique sound coming out of the resonator and they are right!
I need to get a video of it running some time!

Acurite LTD system. It is fairly quiet.
The early 65's either had no muffler or a straight through muffler but got changed because of noise.

Just not sure if I'm a big fan of the raspiness when gearing down. I would like that sound for my own car without the rasp.
66 Dart,my first car. This is nice do not see many with the 270 /GT trunk trim on them. I would trade my Barracuda on the right one with 800 RWHP and look stock other than mini tubs.
