Default Rush baffles and cams.

Looking for some advice....Bought a set of SE 204 cams off another forum member. I am currently running Rush slip ons with 1.75 baffles. I am willing to give up some torque to keep these, because I love the sound. I've been through 6 exhausts including a Fat Cat, but to me nothing sounds as good as the Rush's.
My question is: are the 1.75 baffles too restrictive to use with a cam change. Do I need to go to the 2"? or is this a stupid question and I can just keep what I got? (which is what I prefer).

Thanks for any input....

J.B.

i was using rush 2.0s with the cams i sold you,i would think the 1.75s will just fine unless you want more noise,the 2.0s are loud.i couldnt pm you the dyno for the cams so i"ll post it here.

as you can see there is no dip that you asked about,also by the air fuel line you can see it wasnt tuned yet. only time i saw a dip with the 204s was with a stock 88 with a rinehart 2in1.

I have a set of 2.5" baffles for say $40 plus shipping if you need them. Wife hatted them so they have to go.
