Updated Video:  Ran it to operating temp and also tried out my first auto trans rebuild to make sure it worked before that first test drive. Would most likely have taken the first test drive but with temps well over 100 deg it takes forever for shop to cool back down. Maybe friday or saturday morning early.

I love the sound of that! What mufflers did you use? On my Galaxie I'll be running an x-pipe as well. Not for performance, I just think they sound better.

DynoMax Ultra Flo Stainless in 3”

Longer of 2 versions.

I am running a “H” pipe as think it has better sound
Than a X.  Also much better fitment.

Oh, sorry, I just went back and looked. You've got an H pipe on there.....I could have swore I saw that it had an X pipe.

The X pipe seems to make a more hollow(?) sound. Not entirely sure how to describe it, but I've always liked it.

I'm going to try out those mufflers. Really like it.
