Default spintech catback?

would a catback for a 98+ car work on an LT1 car? the reason i ask is because the spintech catback sounds prettttty damn good but says 98+..

im sure this question has been asked a number of times but i searched and got nothing relevant

If you have longtubes and an ORY it will fit. If not you should be able to buy an lt1 installation kit for the slp loudmouth system and make it work

Spintech sounds like what my catback LT-less SLP sounds like. Mean during normal driving (but very very bearable sound, and then aggressive as hell @ WOT)

Just to clarify, I'm comparing how mine sounds, to mean_green's description of his Spintech. I've never heard a Spintech before, but I have heard my exhaust and that's pretty close to what it sounds like if I were to describe it.

I heard a 2006 GTO with a Kooks/Spintech exhaust and I swear to this day it was the most badass sounding car I've ever heard.
