Can't say for sure, but I would think that any X-pipe would work. Someone chime in if I am wrong here. While I do not have the LT headers on my car, I have a Bassani X-pipe and it works just fine.

For years, it has been a common belief that all catalytic converters place a choke-hold on performance. In 1993, Random Technology disproved that theory with the introduction of Super High Flow catalytic converters. This design, which meets Federal EPA and California ARB requirements, enables virtually any vehicle with a properly tuned engine to meet emissions standards with little, if any power loss (compared to an exhaust with no catalytic converter).
In fact, Random Technology catalytic converters actually have a higher flow capacity than most mufflers. This direct fit, bolt-in replacement for the stock catalytic converter has a 2.75" inlet and 2.75" outlet.
For those with TPIS headers, select the direct slip fit, bolt-on version built specifically for use with The TPIS Headers. Don't be fooled by others offering a version that requires welding. By the time you pay a shop to weld theirs up to the flange you'll have spent the small amount you saved. In addition it may be difficult to find a shop that will do this work considering the laws regarding catalytic converters. There's no better solution than a direct bolt-on solution.
Independent testing by engine builders, racers, and automotive magazines has repeatedly proven the superiority of the Random Technology Super High Flow design.
