Followup on sidepipe muffler options tried. Both sets from Page Mufflers (pagemufflers.com).

First pair were bullet glasspacks, 2 1/2" core, 4" case, 30" long. Nice rumble sitting in driveway idling. Not bad local cruising. Flow is pretty good. Only complaint is with the top on, side windows on, seemed like the inside of a subwoofer enclosure. After about 1/2 hour on the highway, 70 or so, my ears need a break. Might not be so bad when it warms up, and top can come off.

Second pair were 2 1/4" core, 4" case, 36" long. A little more mellow idle, but as the RPM's go up, the db increase is a little more subdued. Will drive around for a week or so and see what the difference is at highway speeds. This is about as much muffler as is going to fit in a glasspack sidepipe. The muffler starts right at the collecter, and ends right at the turn out.
