Looks good. I went the other way and took my rear set of muffs off today. The small V8 running through just the front dual straight through resonators sounds more like a Ferrari than an F150. There is a little resonance at a small range at the low end of the tach discernible in the cabin, secondary to the axle back "tail pipes"; but WOT sounds down right mean. Nice to be a little lighter in the chassis as well. I was surprised how much water the stock muffs pick up from the cats.
