Default Kooks true dual bolt in cat back?

I just noticed this article on GMHTP about Kook's new true dual cat back exhaust for LS f-bodies...it's about time somebody made a true dual cat-back that fits with no mods. How hard would it be to get this to fit a LT1 car? Just curious....read more:

check out in the gen3 bolt on forum, apparently it doesn't fit as well as advertised. You also have to buy a PHB relocation setup, and it only really fits with they're headers.

Edit: Now I can't find the thread, that i read about fitment in.

Their LT1 headers are pretty nice and fit with no drama, but I don't think that cat back will be a huge seller given the cost even on the LS1 based cars.

Ouch! Damn, that is expensive...I could get 4 magnaflow catbacks for that LOL. I guess I don't need it for my power level....would be cool to have just for the sound though; but not $1600 cool.

Bassani made a real nice true dual setup but they were not cheap either and didnt sell that much and why there are now discontinued. I found one for sale used but the price to ship something of that size was rediculous!

Of course a company is gonna have a hard time selling something you can get done for $500 at an exhaust shop for $1300+
