I've decided to go with shorties for now for ease of instalation, O2's, Air, etc. Is this a bolt on package? Meaning will this fit onto the cat? Meaning no fabrication on my part? I'm without my baby so install time's a factor!

Thanks.

On my -95 I had to cut the pipe going from the cat to the original y-pipe some and weld the flange, that came with the shorties, on. So not a fully bolt on deal.

Hooker supplies a flange that has to be welded to the cat to bolt onto the y pipe.

I got some hooker headers for my 95 Z28 and it came with the Y-pipe.

I dont like mine at all, feels like i gained nothing and changing the plugs on the passenge side is still a pita

Alot of people say they gain nothing but a diffrent sound from doing shorties

I have the Hooker shorties on my T/A... (#2062-1 for the '94)

You will definitely gain HP after the install. Sure, longtubes will give you more,
but I'm glad I didn't go with the LTs b/c I lowered my car and it scrapes all the time as it is.

I also gained a noticeable amount of torque down low, off-idle.
The exhaust sounds a lot better, and the coating on the headers themselves
has held up nicely, though not on the y-pipe b/c I drove it two winters after the install...I have since wised up and bought a daily driver.

And yes, the kit came with a flange. I brought it to a local exhaust shop and had them weld the flange to the front of the stock cat. I put some RTV b/w the flanges of the y-pipe and the cat, and it has held up great.

Changing plugs on an LT1 is always a PITA, regardless of the style of headers you have, but it's a rite of passage that EVERYONE should go through.

Interesting coming from a guy running in the 12s
