The ones that I ordered are the 3" in and 3" out slip fit bullets. Part # is 14130000. Martell Bros used to have the best price but are now no more. http://www.ultrarev.com/storefront-c0.html now has the best price that I know of.

BTW, 59.00 for a hi-flow cat!
If they flow the same and are of similar quality that's one helluva deal.

The C5 and F-Body guys use them often. For the price and being that they are metallic substrate I can't see how they would be a bad choice.

The "409"!
The primary drawback to the #415300's advertised specs is the "409 stainless". It's not much better at managing condensation than just plain carbon steel. It is the least expensive stainless out there. Random doesn't display the stainless grade that I can see but it would be worth the asking before a buy.
In a weld on environment I believe I'd want the something better than maybe the "409"! Condensation likely leads to the "ruination" of the Borla systems everyone mentions.

need to see the CFM flow data. sounds cheap, for sure the random cats are expensive, but they flow over 600 cfm and definitely work.
I'd like to try these other ones on "removable" cats as they sure would save some coin. the advantage of the randoms is that from my standpoint they are proven.
