1 3/4 is what you need, and yes the kooks y pipe will work with kooks lt's.

The size refers to the diameter of the primary tubes leaving each cylinder. Most LT companies have their own y-pipes, and they fit best with their respective headers. Kooks stuff is VERY nice.

1-3/4 is what 95% of people get, and offer plenty of flow for whatever power you make. 1-7/8 are usually only used on strokers, max effort H/C motors, or supercharged stuff.
