I'd like to know the answer to that as well. I was considering swapping my rattling 99 manifolds with later stuff rather than doing headers. Jeff

The z06 mufflers flow the best, but their real advantage is the fact that they are titanium. If your going to the trouble of swapping headers, do yourself a favor and just get longtubes.

Sorry, I wasn't clear, I have Stingers already. I just have a bad manifold that rattles and sets off KR. I'm not sure I want to go to headers, if I do they will definetly be long tubes. Jeff

When did they start using pup cats? These don't help.

02 and up Z06 did not have the pup cats, they are the better exhaust--about 2-2.5hp according to GM.
