Nash actually used a glass pack from the factory on 54 and/or 55 Statesman L-head engines (w/2V carb). They found a resonator on the end was necessary to reduce the "bark" of a glass pack. I wonder if any kids snuck the resonator off back then...

I tried one glass pack at the tail, too loud, added a second glass pack in front of it and it still gave me headache! So I found a super turbo that fit [walker IIRC] it ended up with nice sound.
