I need a 3" muffler

I'm looking for a stainless muffler 3" ID both ends.
Straight through, not over 32" overall length, round or not over 7" width.
Sort of like a big cherry bomb. but with some body width. Inlet and outlet centered. I don't want anything short, I want it to actually do some muffling
Something with 24" body length or so. I would also consider non stainless.
It's not for my truck.
Thanks!

I used to run a pair of quality glass packs on my GTO, can't remember the brand, but they were available in different lengths, I had 42" if I remember right. They were bullet shaped and had a swirl inside like my MBRP does and medium dark blue in color.

I also don't think they were glass packs but similar to the old cherry bombs that burned out in about 6 months....

If you lived closer I'd tell you to come pick it up.

Check out aero turbine (now aero exhaust) they have stainless mufflers for a little over $100, stainless and hold up well. Takes the obnoxiousness out of my 12v nicely.

Depending on what you're trying to muffle and how muffled it has to be would determine what you should be looking for.

Glad you found something that works for you. But.....that said, if you've seen the size of the factory muffler.....not even including it connected to the resonator, both all jammed up under there..... There's pleeeeenty room for anything you find.
