If this is built for your specific year I dnt see an issue with it. I assume you are wanting to stay emissions legal. Cause if you werent id say save your money for a set of longtubes and offroad ypipe and be done with it.

you can (if it fits your car). but you might fail emission for relocating the cat. check you state for emissions regulations...if you dont mind emissions then jst save the money for long tubes and catted or ory pipe. good luck.

For $562 you can do a lot better than that. Why bottle neck down to one cat? Makes no sense for a V8.

There's no reason to go with a setup like that with our cars. Dual cats one after each header is a much better setup; flows better, more efficient, and less likely to clog prematurely.

That won't fit a LS1 car unless you are going to hack it up and weld it.
