Got the headers on the vette today and what a difference it made. Gutted the cat too and it sure does breathe well now.

Any noticable low end loss? I'm assuming you used the Hooker Y-pipe too, any fitment issues?

No low end loss, No hooker Y-pipe either...It all fabricated. Like I said it just breathes so much better!
