Default best header/y combo >700

i think i'm pretty set on getting pacesetter coated lt's and a catted pacesetter y-pipe and having a muffler shop weld on a flowmaster collector. i dont wanna spend more then 700. any other suggestions on the best headers and/or y-pipe and say under my target price. thanks for all

I don't think Pacesetter makes a Catted-Y. You would have to have someone fab one up for you.

your up for correction then...i even went so far as to check their site no catted ypipe on there to be found. and youd be hardpressed to be able to put cats into their design.

oops, well corrected i supose but i was referring to a catted pipe as being one w/o cats. my mistake. but at any rate for less then $700, does pacesetter lt's, offroad y, and flowmaster collecter seem to be my best bet? thanks for all

have someone with skinny *** arms to get to the rear most manifold bolts, and grind or cut the kmember before you tighten donw the headers, cut off the nub of the block using a sawsal it will take all of 30 seconds, will not affect appearance or anything so dont worry about it too much...and most important have fun

Check into Jet-Hot...They have a catted Y now, and I like the performance gains..Headers are just like the Hooker LT's...
