A smaller pipe will lend more of a pop sound, not a 3" as suggested earlier. You'll be over-aspirated and like you popped a hot air balloon when all you wanted was a pin to pop Bozo's balloon. Flowmaster has kind of a modern sound, to me anyways. Personnally, I like the rapping of glasspacks much better. Nowadays, I just use 1.5" straight pipes on my 292 out to the bumper. It raps real nice if you get on the gas. V8's sound much different than straight 6's though. Something else you could try is doing a glasspack on one pipe and leave the other pipe straight, no muffler. If it's too loud, just have the muffler shop install another glasspack. I don't know what's up with your motor but, an average old smallblock, wouldn't go bigger than 1.75" duals.
Oh yeah, where the heck is Zabickville, Texas?
