I put the 2.5" flowmaster american thunder exhaust on my 70 SX with a 455: Here is what it sounded like in idle: http://www.oldsmobilecentral.com/201...er-exhaust.php

I had a 2.5" magnaflow exhaust on my 68 350 which also sounded good:

My current 72 has the 3" Pypes system on it with a 350 and sounds awesome. Here is an older video:

2800 for a 68 442 sounds like a pretty good deal. You should post pictures

Don't know where you're at in the city, but your nearest Valesquez Muffler should be able to get what you need!
Think they're approaching 50 locations around the Chicago area!
