Popular Post randyp Posted February 8, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted February 8, 2013 Yesterday I dood something I shoulda done few years ago. When i bought Killer, it had straight 5 inch chrome pipe exiting just above cab. I been hauling stuff around, making all kinds racket, hitch hikers putting their hands over their ears, getting killer headaches, (pardon the pun, just slipped out) etc. I dint put a muffler on him, but put a resonator on and wow, what a difference! Went from Brappp,,,blap, blap blap, to a nice low rumble. Now I can actually pour the coal to it and keep my eyes open to watch the road! Im even able to hear those strange voices in my head while Im moving equipment! Wondering why I waited so long now,,,,I know, I know,,,no pics,,someday will figure out how to do that again. randyp 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29839-quieter-killer-b/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vladislav Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Maybe you better take that resonator off again?Voices can wait!And hogs would keep safe distance from where your way goes. 2 Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29839-quieter-killer-b/#findComment-162864 Share on other sites More sharing options...

randyp Posted February 9, 2013 Author Share Posted February 9, 2013 I think I may have finally "mellowed" in my old age Mark. Its bout time. I am going to work on getting pics of the quieter killer on here, sure did tame him down. I dint know resonators worked that good, course, Killer was never known for his excess horsepower anyways. randyp Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29839-quieter-killer-b/#findComment-163048 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freightrain Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 I put a 4" Dynomax "race" muffler(ie: glass pack) on my B. Go figure...race muffler for a race truck pulling a race trailer with a race car in it. Hmmmm, coincedence?? I think NOT!!I originally had a 5" straight pipe, but it droned sooooooooooooooooooooo bad that it gave me a headache within minutes of entering the highway. The 4" pipes are much more forgiving and not such a deep resonance. The muff just takes the rap out of it. Stil hear it coming though. If I could find someone to actually drive it, I'd like to hear it personally. 1 Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

felicello122 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Well I just turned 45, My Petebilt daily driver has a 425CAT with 8 inch straight pipes. Sounds really good going through the gears, But on the big road in overdrive at about 1650RPM it will start to bother me a bit. I think i am going to install a resonater under neath, and then i will probably remove in a month. I have done this twice already, maybe this time I will leave it on!!! 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29839-quieter-killer-b/#findComment-163138 Share on other sites More sharing options...
