im pretty sure it will..........look at this picture and you can see, those mufflers are about 12-14" im guessing...........so there seems to be room for 18" in the same location.
ill take pics when mine is done.

I got this reply from a guy at that web site:
2.5" diameter systems seem to be the most popular on Z-28's.
We're making them now and they will be ready the first of next week.
Call if we can be of more help.

Yes there is a hp and torque gain through true duals rather than any other cat-back. It simply 'opens' up your exhaust so that there is less restriction, therefore producing more torque and hp in general.
Having headers causes a small loss in torque, but it is compensated...

it doesnt do much on a stock motor
but on a heads/cam or stroker, it can be an improvement.

Re: chambered true duals?
i have the same idea.
^concepts.. the first one would work out better because its nearly impossible to route pipes over the drivers side of the axle. The mufflers you see will be 18" sweet thunder chambered.
