Yea. If your talking about the one that uses the Huge slash cut tips you just need to cut them off and then run new pipe out to your dual tips on each side. It will require some welding of the new pipe but thats it. any exhaust shop can do it or if you have a welder you can do it.

Sounds like you don't like the truck cannons that come with the Magnaflow catback. You can always piece together your own catback by using a Magnaflow muffler, a Dynamax intermediate pipe and choosing you own tips. Like stated above, any competent muffler shop can do it.

Now if you want to save a few bucks and aren't running LT's I suggest just going with a Magnaflow muffler and tips since the stock intermediate pipe is 2.75" versus 3" for the catback - not much of a difference if you're running the stock manifold. The Mag muffler runs $100 and sounds great on a LT1.

I'm not saying I don't like the big cannons it's just twin tips look a lot better on a firebird than the cannons
