Default Cats for Edelbrock ORY?

What high-flow cats does everyone recommend for the 3" Edelbrock ORY? The LT's already scrape on everything, so the last thing I need is some bulky cat's that hang too low. I'm trying to keep the exhaust restrictions to a minimum on the 408, but dammit I need some cat's before I lose my mind Let me know what yall suggest, or if anyone has a catted Y that they'd like to sell that would fit.

They're pricey but the best flowing I've seen and pretty small.

Random Technology Metal Matrix 7000 Series CATS, you'll probably want the 3" inlet/outlet ones if you're making BIG power.

Apparantly Magnaflow are also meant to be making some Metal Matrix CATS so it might be worth haveing a word with them to see if they are available yet.

Alright, I'll look into those. You have a part number by chance? The RT site isn't very helpful.

Best bet is to phone or email them (I think they sell direct, else have a look at their distributors and contact them).

LG use these cats in the C5 Corvette LT headers & X-pipe package.

I've been looking at the Metal Matrix series for a while and they look to be real quality, low profile, and flow pretty well. Looks like I'll probably be going with those.
