I don't understand why this wouldn't be standard practice.

AutoZone has various size exhaust pipe expanders available as loaner tools, very simple to use;
using this you can expand the downstream pipe to fit over the upstream pipe.

I'm thinking ahead when the cats "wear" out and need replacement, but they would have to have the 4 bolt flange so they would bolt right up to the collector ring.
(...and also, being in Cal. it may be wise to be able to show an EO # for the cats if not for the headers).

Joe Car:
No cat would be CARB legal on LT headers ... unfortunately relocation of the cat makes for automatic failure. Our currrent OBDII CARB cats will pass the sniffer but again do to the relocation they would NOT be considered legal.
RrCoX22:
I wil have to check with sales as these numbers have been released.
Sean's SS:
One reason would be additional flow. If the cats are ceramic 400 cell cats the MagnaFlow Ultra-Flows are goign to make for a substantial increase.
RevGTO:
I'm looking for info from sales on availibility of pricing.
JL - WS6:
Indeed ... stainless core and shell.

I understand that relocating the cat fails the visual, that's my responsibility.
