I can't help you with the Y-Pipe fitment issue, but let me tell you about the LM. Putting a muffler on a loud mouth should just be illegal. The LS1 sounds so yummy with a stock LM1.

I believe the Hooker Y will work with the Pacesetter headers. If you are going to do a true dual, just do it now and don't bother with switching things around in a couple of months. If you must do it this way, I would just get the Pacesetter ORY.

You must havent ever heard a LM1 car with headers/ory/or a cam. When you do you'll retract that staement.

LM sucks Get a sweet thunder or preferably a classic chambered "powerstick" for the same sound but better flow.

Whatever you do dont buy the Pacesetter ORY. I did without researching and after I saw it I was compelled to immediately sell it for a loss. I would never put that POS on my car.

While the Pacesetter ORY may not be the best, its fine for the money. I did alot of searching and read numerous complaints about every ORY out there. I don't think there is a "perfect" ORY. If your going to do duals, just do them now and get it over with.
