Default What is your favorite loud(er) cheap muffler

I'm putting some new exhaust on my new junker 79 chevy square ranch truck. It has a rebuilt 400 small block (someday a Pontiac) with a 4spd and 6" lift. I picked it up cheap and plan to run it exclusively off-road. Its starting to run pretty good! It currently has 4 tube headers with 3" collector reducing into 2.25" cats on each side and glasspacks dumping before the rear axle. It sounds like crap and NOT loud enough. I'm actually shocked at how crappy it sounds! I plan to remove everything behind the header and replace with 2.5" straight pipes/no cats/new mufflers dumping before the rear axle.

I have the dynomax ultraflows on my Pontiac with full exhaust (RARE 3" oval X pipe) and I love the sound. I would like to find some CHEAP mufflers that are at least as loud as the ultraflows and still sound good (or good enough), louder is ok as long as its not obnoxious but too quiet won't cut it!. Do I need to pony up for the ultraflows, or can I make this happen for less cash? Remember, CHEAP! This is my budget ranch warrior truck! Thanks gentlemen!
