[DeTomaso] What muffler manufacture is this?

[Scott Mead Photography]

Robert,

Those look like Flowmaster 10 mufflers. I installed a set of these on my car several years ago when I lived on Maui. They’re about the same size of the Ansa GTS mufflers, but chambered, so there’s hardly any noise reduction. I purchased a set of slip-on tips from Hall Pantera and welded them on. The finished exhaust look pretty close to stock mufflers. 

Honestly, they’re loud and resonate more than the Ansas at 3,000 RPM. That said, I do wear hearing protection when I’m on the freeway, but the sound at idle and running through the gears is intoxicating. You can hear them here: https://youtu.be/KMViyA7zTCM.

Here’s a couple quick shots of the mufflers on the car.

   Robert,

   Those look like Flowmaster 10 mufflers. I installed a set of these on
   my car several years ago when I lived on Maui. They're about the same
   size of the Ansa GTS mufflers, but chambered, so there's hardly any
   noise reduction. I purchased a set of slip-on tips from Hall Pantera
   and welded them on. The finished exhaust look pretty close to stock
   mufflers.

   Honestly, they're loud and resonate more than the Ansas at 3,000 RPM.
   That said, I do wear hearing protection when I'm on the freeway, but
   the sound at idle and running through the gears is intoxicating. You
   can hear them here: [1]https://youtu.be/KMViyA7zTCM.

   Here's a couple quick shots of the mufflers on the car.
