Do all ORY smell? I'm looking at getting headers and y-pipe, most likely american racing but I want to know if all O/R headers and ORY smell like straight gasoline bc i DD my car and cant stand the smell. I have friends that have deleted the cats and smelll fine and others who have ORY and it smells like ****.

ive been runnin' no cats for sometime now and the smell isnt bad... i actually like it haha when i first got the ORY and cats off it smelled pretty strong for the first week or so then faded alot so
i would deal with the smell for the power or just get a catted ypipe w/ your LT's

stock cam probably won't smell like unspent fuel too bad. throw a cam with some nice overlap then you'll get raw fuel exiting out the exhaust.
Personally I like the smell of unspent gas spewing from my tailpipes. Makes it smell like a car.

my buddies 2000 TA has no cats, and no smell either,, he is stock cam, etc. i think he even still has the EGR and AIR setups on there as well, if that makes a difference.

I'm running Pacesetter lts and tsp ory with the egr and air deleted. It gets pretty stinky at times, but that's to be expected from a catless setup.
