I haven't done it but I know a few things you need to consider after doing a comparison of my buddies ZO6 and my M6 Z51 on a lift:
First, the ZO6 pipes are 3" form the head pipes all the way back vs.
2.5" for the std pipes.
Second, You'll need to set up a vacucm activation set up and an method of turning the vacuum on and off ( a Vacuum solenoid will work) to get the baffles to work and I'd add a vacuum accumulator to avoid any changes to engine manifold vacuum whne they are activated.
Third, since you have an auto Trans , there may be interference as some aftermarket exhaust will fit a 6 spd but not an auto so the large diament pipes may present a problem.
hope this helps.
