Quick header ?...
I am planning on doing a cam (MTI V1) within the next few weeks. I'm kind of on a budget right now, but i need LT's. Which ones bolt right up so i can run stock cats for now. I will get an x-pipe later on. thanks in advance

Go bigger with your cam! As far as the headers to exhaust... I have been wrong before *but* I think most systems will bolt right up. I KNOW my LG longtubes bolted up to my factory Ti just fine.

As far as bolting up to your stock cats,I don't think there is any longtube setup that you can bolt up to the cats without cutting and welding.Besides,the x pipe you can buy with the longtubes anyway for a little bit more anyway.....Only headers I can think of that will actually directly bolt up to a stock pipe is a shorty header,but I wouldn't buy shorty headers.

oh god no you must be out of your mind.I wouldn't put ss autochrome headers on any car even if you paid me to.

sorry, in my above post I thought you said stock catback... i don't think you can use your stock cats with any longtubes. why would you want to?

One thing at a time confuses me... You're longtubes will go all the way back to your catback exhaust and will bolt together. Whether or not your longtubes have no cats or high flow cats will depend on what you choose. Cats cost more, so don't get them and you'll still be good to go. The longtubes will just have a "blank" pipe where the cats can be added later if you want.

Should you decide to go with the SSAutochrome option, be sure to PM tstar about corvetteforum pricing before ordering. Not sure if the deal is still available or not, but it is worth a shot.
