With longtubes you will need to extend the o2's
You will be fine running an open X-pipe.
Similar to what my setup was, except I was 2.5" and catted.
You know you really don't need 3" TD's unless you're going to be putting some serious power down right? If you're not, you are just sacrificing ground clearance.

yes the collectors are 3". looks like the gaskets you picked out are back-ordered until 9/29.

for some reason the last 3" setup I did I had to add a section to the pipes that go to the headers. For some reason the headers were wider then the x-pipe would go and still be able to tuck it up tight to the car. It was either a summit or jegs deal. Never had a problem with the 2.5" kits though.

I have the Pacesetters as well and did a reducer down to 2.5" with header flanges and the thing is rock solid and sounds wicked at WOT with bolt-ons only.

I assume this is the part your both reffering to: http://www.lt1engine.com/tech/wp-con...16-540x405.jpg
I found these:
http://store.airflo.com/exhaust-adapters.html
a 3" to 3" will work?
