I have the Hooker LT's on my SS and I had a custom Y-Pipe made. It cost me a pretty penny but it is all mig welded, flanges on the collectors and cat-back and it is 3" mandrel bent pipe. You can go with the Hooker Y-pipe. It is also mandrel bent expect for the flat spots.

As far as what size, I would say go with 3" or bigger. The collectors on your headers are 3 so why would you go smaller. With the lt's and a good Y you should see between 20 and 30 hp. More hp depending on what other mods you have.

hope this helps.

Andy

Just use the Hooker ORY. It looks much much much better in person...

Great piece IMO

You definitly do the O/R pipe unless you have inspection coming up and cant get a sticker. I just put the Hooker L/Ts on mine with the O/R and a SLP Loudmouth exhaust. Sounds loud and awsome.

ORY means off road y-pipe, no cats.
3" or bigger, but I guess flowmasters is 3" as well, so there is no reason to go more than 3"
