Default Test pipe?

Which is better performance high flow cat with 50 series flowmasters or a pipe in place of the cat with 50 series flowmasters, and would anybody recommend any good headers for this 87 corvette?

Ok, I can't find a gasket that will match up from the test pipe and rear Y pipe. I guess I will have to just gut my high flow cat. Is there anybody think differently about doing this. Money doesn't really matter if there is another solution.
