    My dual exit side exhaust use "Purple Hornies" glasspack mufflers (no crossover tube) and are good and loud. In the future I plan on adding some kind of resonators to quiet it down just a tad.

    Thrush Glasspacks

    Thrush also had a another version "Hush Thrush". I don't know what they were marketed for, maybe just trying to cash in on stock replacement muffler market?

Would like to freshen it up with some heat resistant paint (rattle cans). I get the feeling this aluminized tubing may react like galvanized metal and reject...

    Glass packs as resonators

    The Thrush mufflers on my parents new '71 Road Runner were much louder than factory at idle, but not objectionable. At a 70 MPH cruise (3000 RPM) they were quiet. At full throttle acceleration they were loud as hell. Never a drone sound. The advertisement in the photo describes this early Thrush...

    California Exhaust

    I put thrush mufflers on the new '71 Road Runner my parents bought. Drove it to high school two years, no problems. Sold the car to a friend who re-installed the factory mufflers after getting a ticket right away. You never know.
