Open headers? I took my Z28 and had a shop install long tubes and a o/r y-pipe, but their welder messed up and they cant connect it back to my catback. Its about 100 miles from my house. Will I be OK running it with open headers till I get to my house and can weld it up? Thanks

Run it with the Y attached.
I run my car with an open Y since I don't want to pay some retard $100 just to do a quick weld.
It sounds amazing and it's not that loud at all.
