that's what I am using. I think it sounds great. I've probably got the quietest mod'd 7 I've ever heard.

I run my magnaflow as a presilencer. The case has turned gold since I had installed it, but the car has not been any louder since it was new.

What he said, my pops is using one on his 79 as a pre silencer; and the case turned bronze, but the car is not any louder than the day the per silencer was installed.

I am in the process of replacing the "small" ssautochrome muffler in my 91, in favor of a magnaflow.

Never used the mufflers, but I have a magnaflow cat with split air pipe and it has held up after many thousands of miles.

How many thousands of miles? Several, tens of thousands?

I'm using the magnaflow mufflers in a dual setup. For the most part they sound ok Higher pitched then the Racing Beat exhaust and 1/2 louder than then RB stuff. I get Tinny at Wide Open Throttle but I have no cats or presilencer so I couldn't tell you how it would sound with the other stuff in line. I have had them for one year. Doesnt drone too bad on the autobahn like some.

I run the magnaflow. It's a large oval dual tipped model behind my s/c'd bridgeport. It's been there for about 2 years and with the new motor has survived many backfires when it get shut off with no issue. http://media.putfile.com/bridgeported-supercharged-13b http://media.putfile.com/BRIDGPORTED-13B-COMPILATION
