I have never seen/heard of it. any reason why you wanna put stock cats and not aftermarket/highflow ones? also, I think the stock cats would be somewhat of a bottleneck on the 3" exhaust considering the stock exhaust is smaller.......

Those look great, you'd have nothing to lose as long as there's some flow testing done on them. What a deal.
