Question Dynomax LM resonator swap

am getting LT's here soon so I need to replace my resonator on my LM with a Dynomax. Now from what I understand, they come in different lenths, does anyone know the proper size to buy for the LM resonator swap? And where can I get a Dynomax bullet for cheap?

18 inch long 3 inch i.d. If there are still gaps a muffler shop can fix them for cheap. I would just pay them to weld it in for you as it is, be like 30-40 dollars.
