This is the setup that I'm putting on the car. Just got the catalytic converters today. Going to the shop hopefully by the weekend. I don't think the shop will have too much of a problem putting this on. Should I have the x-pipe, muffler and cats welded or clamps. Vote!

guess this isn't gonna happen not today anyway. The shop wanted to charge me 425 to go out the back under the axel when I have most of the ****. the mufflers would be hooked up straight into the x junction too.

I had that exact set up minus the cats on my 96 LT1 Z and did it all myself. We mocked it up, tack welded it and then pulled it off and welded the whole thing. it sounded awesome! Weld it though don't clamp it. Just use clamps at the collector.

Thats not a bad price considering they will have to fab up something so the cat's and pipes fit correctly. Based on the pics you provided, it definatly wont bolt up that way...Good luck with your install
