Search is your friend.

I have read, the emissions fittings have a tendancy to pop off. Also, the fit leaves something to be disired. You may have to massage them into place.

Mine are almost identical to the pacesetters i used to have, the y-pipe almost bolted right back up. I had to mod it alittle and on the drivers side one of the primaries touches the k-member, just tap it in w/ a hammer slightly.
