A couple questions...

Please bare with me as the search function is still non existent. I have a couple questions I need answered before I go through and get my exhaust system.

1st: Will the Hooker 2055's work on my L69?

2nd: Will all the A.I.R. tubing and all that be able to hook up to the headers like they hooked up to the factory exhaust manifolds?

3rd: Do cars with cut-outs pass inspections? Obviously it will be closed during the inspection, but my dad said that they might fail me just for having it installed. So I don't want it installed if its going to make me fail.

4th: I wanted to know how much fabbing its going to take to get a cut-out welded in after my y-pipe and before my cat. Also will they have to shorten my I-pipe on my cat back?

Set up that I plan on running:

Hooker 2055's with y-pipe
QTP Electronic exhaust cutout
Catco High Flow Cat (9118)
Pacesetter Catback

Thanks for all your help!

Yet again i dont know about arizona but in texas no one will weld in a cutout before the cat because of emissions. But as far as doing the work all they will do is cutout a section and put it in no big deal.

Well I just got off the phone with an emissions technician from the Arizona DMV and he said as long as the cut-out doesn't leak, they have no problems with them. WOOT!! And also if its used at the track only. Hehe that was my excuse. So now I can get the ball rolling with my exhaust system! Thanks guys!
