So I made some improvements today..... buffed the front lights and cleaned them up quite a bit. I also hacked off the muffler because it was just too damn quiet. I'm glad I did, because I found that the right side converter had a large chunk stuck nearly completely sideways. I broke that out, and holy crap is this thing loud now! I also removed the tailpipes because even though they are rust free they have a bunch of holes, and also found a spot on the muffler that was welded, no idea why, maybe removing other chunks of converter. I drove it home, and it definitely has more pep now, not just on the butt dyno, that converter must have been restricting it quite a bit. its definitely way too loud to keep it this way, but now i'm open to many possibilities.

I made a little video, I even had to shut the back window because it was so loud.

Yep, that sounds right, except in Pigpen everything is rattling now because of it lol.

Oh, and I also realized that there is no sign of a smog pump anywhere, not even a bypass pulley, and the headers would have taken care of any of the lines for it. I also don't get any codes for one. I didnt look close enough for an open plug, but it seems to not have come with it.

Same problem goin on with my truck. Damn cats. But yeah that sounds lik mine when I took off the muffler. I'm due for an exhaust overhaul too.
