Header Style Question

I was just wondering from reading another post...would it be better to buy long tubes with dual hi flow cats for my 96 z, or would it be easier/cheaper/better to get the 95 style long tubes with the single cat?
Any difference?
Thanks
Bill

Also...will the 95 style fit right up to my car?

With long tubes you won't pass the visual emissions inspection anyway (if one is performed). If you have to have an emissions sniffer test, a dual-cat setup would probably have lower emissions than the same car with a single cat.

While I'm here...I already got quoted from jet hot that i could get the hedman headers fully coated for under $400. Does anybody have experience with the Hedman Long tubes? Does anybody know anything about them?
Thanks
Bill

I don't think Headman makes long tubes for our cars...you may want to do some more research into that.

Well now im baffled on how to use jet-hots website to search for longtube headers. I dont see where it says any sizes for the headers they list, except some say shorty and some do not.

Those heddman long tubes are race headers, not street headers. If you look in their catalogue, it says theyre for automatics with no A/C, power steering. I called them to make sure and he said it was a full race header and the onyl thing they have for us is shorties.
