On the subject of throttle response, I helped Ben McFarland, the original founder of M&K, develop the first muffler for a 3.2. 3 shipments of test fitting was all it took. The prototype was a long can vs. the short Ben went to for his whole line and I have used a short can as well. The long can had MFI/Weber like throttle response. It was instantaneous. It also had a true F1 shriek at high RPM. I sold the car with that muffler on it and years later after getting the short can (and disappointed it was different) contacted the owner and asked if I could borrow the muffler to be duplicated while his car was off the road for the winter. He would have none of it. Best I could do now is work with Brian and develop a new one. Would be worth it but on a different track had Ben develop this straight through "muffler" in exchange for rebuilding a steering rack. Connected to George's headers.
