Interesting.  I'll have to look into the possibility of adding a second
resonator maybe.

Mike,

Here's the setup I'm running:

1. PP Y-Pipe
2. SHO Shop Aluminized Cat Back with Edelbrock RPM mufflers
3. TWO Dynomax Race Mufflers in a row.  Got them from Jegs, current
catalog page 14, 4" Race Bullet Muffler, PN 289-24215 with a 2.5" inlet
and outlet.  They are abou 13" long each.  One before the bend for the
rod shifter, and one after.
4. Ted's LPM

The two resonators definitely are a big part of the deep tone.  However,
if I remove Ted's LPM it isn't quite as deep and it definitely rasps a
bit around the time the secondaries open.  So, I'd say to get the
deepest tone you need, at the very least, the resonators, LPM and
probably the Edelbrocks, which are reported to be very loud overall.

Kurt
