I have a 1989 Bronco II that I'm swapping a 4.0 into it. The engine has standard exhaust manifolds and cats. I'm looking for some suggestions on what kind of of muffler I can use to give it a nice sound. I know its never going to sound like a big block or a V8 but I thought maybe someone out there has done the same swap and tried a certain muffler with good results. I don't want it to sound like rice or a lawnmower just as deep as possible with a nice tone. Looking forward to your input. Thanks

Hmm, not sure how to answer that. If it were a gauge I guess I would want 3/4 deflecting.
 






It's your call, but I like the way Froader describes the sound of the Dynomax.
 






Froader, Do you have a V8 or the 4.0? If you have the V8 My sound will be different I have a 4.0 stock manifolds and cats.
 












i have a dynomax of some kind in my bII with the 2.9, it sounds pretty good for a wimpy 2.9, ill leave the same one in there with my 4.0, hopefully it sounds pretty darn good
 






i would way that flows are pretty damn loud in terms of volume, ancd they have a shaky rumble to them, and magnaflows are more quiet with not as much rattle to their rumble. its more of a cleaner sound. thats how i would describe them. the gibsons sound more like flows to me.
