Great, thanks for the information. I'm not too big on spacers so I'll look at an 11-inch wheel in the back and a 10 in the front.

Nice! Looks exactly like mine and I agree, I don't think it's that loud until you get into the high RPM range. A friend of mine has a 'vette ZO6 and he removed the mufflers and ran straight pipes. ...
