A couple of questions:

1) Is there a Y-pipe available without the "spouts" for the cutouts?? My car is exclusively street-driven and I have had my fill of deafening exhaust systems, so I can't see myself ever uncapping the cutouts; no reason to have the potential leaks there if I don't need the feature.

2) I currently have a set of SLP headers that I am going to try to sell so I can get the QTP's. However, I plan on keeping the "SLP" (Random Tech) cats and having the Y-pipe modded to accept them (perhaps add flanges to the Y-pipe and on either end of each cat; will also likely get a set of bullets to put in place of the cats). Looking at the pics, it seems that this would be a viable possibility but without actually seeing the piece, it's difficult to tell. Even though I shouldn't have to pass a sniffer test, I'd like the option of at least acting like I can make a reasonable attempt at it if I have to.

3) Are the colored ceramic coatings as effective at reducing underhood temp/preventing corrosion as the "chrome"/silver coatings?? I am leaning towards the cast grey coating.

4) Is the location of the Y-pipe outlet is approximately the correct location for connection to a Mufflex 4" system??

Thanks for any input.

Oh, and something for The Colonel's and Fenris's discussion... are the headers out of phase even considering the LS1's different (when compared to an SBC) firing order??

I don't know, I'm just throwing it out there, and making sure that it is considered... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Good question burnout, I'd like to know also since I read that the LS1 firing order is "racing inspired".
