your slp cat back may be fine, but your stock manifolds and y-pipe are not going to help you at all, you need to let your car breath.

Man, your first post is a real doozy.

Well, I looked at 3 or 4 Fbodies before I bought the black rose, one being a 98 LS1 A4.
I like my body style, interior, headlights, tailights, interior, sound and looks better.

And ive more than made up for the .4 difference.

nice first post, if you want a ls1 so bad stay outta the lt1 section and quit messing with this thread..

Back on topic, Pacesetter coated LT's are cheap and will net you a good amount. I picked up 6 mph with my 94.

Pacesetters are fine. TONS of people here have them, they fit good and do the job just as well as the more expensive ones. The only downside I see to them is they may not look quite as nice as others.
