Default Exhaust swap from ls1 to lt1

ok this dude has a 2001 ls1 trans am and i have a 96 lt1 trans am, and he is selling me everything headers back, the ypipe and the borla cat back, and he told me a guy said that the ypipe wouldnt work on my lt1 cause ls1 y pipes are different!! is that true, ok will the catback even work on mine ?

ok well i already have a borla catback but i threw a drive shaft and messed my ipipe up so i just need the i pipe off the catback really and borla wants to charge me 180 for a little piece of pipe and he is gonna sell me from the headers all the way back to the tips and he has BRAND new borla tips all of it for $200, so i cannot pass that up, and he also has a corsa catback for $200 if ya know anyone who wants it , we are located here in temple,tx

My 96 Z28 has a Magnaflow Catback off of a 01 WS6 and I think the only thing different was the hangers on the tips... the person before me just relocated the hangers...

Dont know bout the Ypipe...

if you get the chance take a couple pictures of them and come up with a price and shoot me a PM and maybe we can work something out.
