Getting stacks need opinions

Hey Guys,
I'm going to buy stacks here in a week or so [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] and I think I want to go with 6in flat cut with flappers, just wanted your opinions on what looks best, and any pictures if you got them. Thanks!

Re: Getting stacks need opinions

I would think the chatter of flappers would get old really quick- but thats just my opinion
I am planning on going 5 inch flattops on mine

Re: Getting stacks need opinions

Thats funny around here most are all turn outs and a few mitres and only one flat top that I know of my buddy's and his is 5 inch and they look bigger then the rest I think maybe 6 inch flaots might look a littler big but hey thats just my opinion [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img]

Re: Getting stacks need opinions

I wouldnt think that with 6" duals there would be enough exhaust at least at idle to push the flappers up and they would chatter alot like what was alreayd said, get turnouts or just go w/ mitres, they seem to be able to take on quite a bit of water and still not have any problems.

Re: Getting stacks need opinions

Just a question?
What would be the problem with running flattops w/ no flappers, whats the big deal with water getting in them?
wont it just get blown out when you start the truck?

Yes, but the water turns black from all of the soot in the pipes, then it gets all over your truck.
