If you want a loud exhaust, go with B&B Bullets. Bullets and long tube headers make a nice sounding combo. Kook's, LG and American Racing seem to be the most popular headers.

Is there a Hi-Flow cat that bolts onto the stock headers and a Bullet exhaust?

Random Technologies has em allready installed in the down pipe coming off the exhaust manifold. Yes, it's a bolt in no cutting required. Yes, the B&B bullet exhaust and B&B x-pipe will bolt right up too.

Default Sound only??????

Sound is nice. But, couple it with added HP and your spending money on mods that matter.

Bite the bullet, molest that puppy and go for the VetteDoctors Cam. It includes headers, tubes, low flow cats, dyno tune and will generate the BEST all around sound plus another 100 rwhp with the stock mufflers.

Add one of pipedreams magic buttons and your neighbors will hate you. But, you will have sound that matters.

Just my opinion. Have fun.http://video.tinypic.com/player.php?v=2updd84

Welcome to the "Corvette Tax!" $200/per cylinder for headers doesn't happen with a 1978 C1500 with a targetmaster 350...
