I believe the 98's only had one tailpipe.
**Edit** From JRP's faq page

This is some basic info on the LS1 that i've gather from all of the internet and put into one list:

1998

1. Had differnet casting heads which had perimeter bolts and valve covers.
2. Ignition coils were mounted to the valve covers one at a time.
3. The water temp gauge actually works.
4. 98's do have an oil life monitor, they just don't tell you anything when its time for a change. You can find it in Auto-Tap
5. WS6s had single outlet exhaust (all others had duals)

The left side has 2 tips, the right side has 1 tip. I think they come with 1 tip on EACH side.

Fix that saggy and crooked exhaust tip! Letters look good though.

Personally I like the rear bird and Trans Am, but you SERIOUSLY need to get those tips fixed.

You should have photoshopped out the dirt while you were at it! Loved the look of my Camaro fill ins in silver on my black car. HUGE difference in how it looked.
