They are called Random Technologies 3" Bullet cats. Call More Performance. He has a good price on them. I paid $150.00 each.

You may already know this, but the TPIS headers and Y-pipe are direct bolt ons. The Y-pipe will slip fit over the cat. This of course is a moot point if your intent on true dual exhaust. At least on the L98's anyway

Does anyone have the model number, RT's website only has replacement cats.

Thanks.

89Vette: Thanks, Just ordered them from Skip at More. I told him I got the info from a bad butt 89, 396 vette. He said he remembers you and the car.

Thanks for the info.

The car is going to be pretty loud: heads, Hot Cam, TPIS LT Headers, Bullet cats, x pipe, straight pipe.

Glad I could help. Skip is a great guy. He and I have the same last name also. I love my set up with the long tubes, bullet cats and Corsa catback. A word of caution on the headers and cats, make sure you route all wires FAR away from those things. You may also want to cover your clutch slave cylinder with heat shield. I have some melted plastic wire looms that need replaced over the winter. I plan on adding heat shield also. With the cats on the ends of the header, it seems to hold in alot more heat in the headers.
