7.3s are not known for their quietness.. that's why i love them.
you should do the foil delete, that'll quieten it down some!

mine's had the foil delete done to it at some point or another.. i suppose that's part of what the issue is.. but those big pipes look soooo nice under the hood all cleaned up.. ..
i was just curious if anybody had insulated the fire wall to tone it down a lil.. i've already got permanent high frequency hearing damage from workin on radars for 15 years, no use for the wife and kiddos to get it too..
