i bought the set with the LT1 Mufflers in march, the tone is great and so much happier without the cat. has a spot for the o2 sensor as well.
I bought the set up from Corvette Central for my '84. I also gutted my smog pump and had the tubes cut and welded shut on my exhaust manifolds.

After the install, I did have to bring the car to a muffler shop to bend the tail pipes. They mounted a bit too low. The shop heated and bent the pipes and tucked them so they hung correctly.

The car sounds great, no drone and no O2 sensor error codes (yet).
