Default Hey Rat...

How do you like your Z06 B & B Shorties? I am thinking about getting a set and having Norris put them on.

I think RAT is on the road today:)

There is another member here by the name of bwhitmore, who recently installed them on his '01.

We have a special price on the B&B's if you are interested. We have stock too.

i dont have the dyno right in front of me....but they gave me 11.9 and 11.4 rwhp/rwtq at 6400 rpm and about 7 and 7 at the peak HP RPM

install requires no welding, just bolts on.......and you might want to remove the entire intermediate pipe and GUT the pre cats while you are workin on it.....that will give ya few more hp gain........to gut them, use a crow bar or the like to knock the honeycomb stuff out and make sure ya dump it out the front

hope that helps

Actually, I was thinking about cutting out the pre cats and welding in a straight pipe.
