Well, I decided to replace the muffler and tailpipe on my El Camino because they were, well, shot. The muffler and tailpipe were rotted through, which surprised the heck outta me because my El Camino has such low mileage on it and NO rust at all.

Anyway, they needed replacement. I needed something that would get the job done, cheap, and of a decent quality. I headed to auto parts store which that we have our contract with and they supplied me with a Walker Quietflow muffler and tailpipe.

After installing them, I can definitely realize why they call it the "Quietflow". These things make the ElCo quieter than any car I've ever heard, no joke. If you push the gas, the only sound heard from the car is from outside, and all you can hear is the engine. Virtually NO noise comes out from the exhaust, it's pretty intense.

Not that a great number of people want a car that lacks a sound, but for those that do, this is definitely for you. Costing only about $65 for the muffler, tailpipe, hangers, and tax, I'd say they were quite worth it.

I'll have pictures up soon, guys. Take it easy.

Do you have single or dual exhaust? Do you think the car runs better with the new mufflers?

That's pretty cool. I think a quiet muffler would be almost as cool as a loud one just to have a sleeper 8)

Sorry for the VERY late response, guys.

Anyway, I have single exhaust. My El Camino is original as humanly possible. As far as running better, she purrs like a kitten. As far as a performance increase is concerned, she seems to be a bit more peppy and responsive, but that also just could be a part of the fact that my original ones were shot. Either way, I'm VERY satisfied, especially for the price. I know it doesn't seem like much, but they're very high quality if you ask me.

Yeah, the muffler is great, she's as quiet as a mouse. I'm actually considering purchasing a Walker QuietFlow(s) again after I sell my El Camino and put them on whatever project I have in mind.

Again, I'll have pictures up soon, I just need to get the El Camino on the lift and then I'll post pictures up here as well in the members gallery if I can. -L
