You have to be INSANE to have long-tube headers on a big-block A-body Mopar!

I've never liked loud exhaust. I look at it as a necessary evil, in some cases.

I'm more impressed with a quiet exhaust that works well. I had a Lexus LS460L....stone-*** quiet and it would rev freely to way past 6000RPM. That tell you someone had their act together in the exhaust department.

I used to drive my cuda with 3" exhaust to the races, race it, then drive back, 100 mile round trip.....I'd get home and my head would be ringing even the next day. At the time I kinda thought it made me a Warrior/Badass/Bad Dude but now I look back and have to admit it didn't do anything but make my head ring.

As for bad *** dudes....let me give you an idea of what I consider a bad *** dude, as pictured below. Note that he lacks any tats, piercings, beards, alcoholic beverages, and might even be wearing a dress. But trust me, boys, he's a bad as **** of the highest order.
