Default I think I'm FINALLY going to get the SS exhaust!

The guy I'm buying it from says he's been extremely busy at work, 12 hour days and couldn't get it shipped. I've been waiting for about 3 1/2 weeks for it and we been in contact during that time. He's been real nice and apologetic about the delay so it's been cool. I'm getting a real good price on the muffler, tailpipe and tip from a Silverado SS. He's shipping it to me without me evening paying for it yet so I can see it first. It's going out Tuesday and should be here by next Tuesday, it's going to take a week UPS gorund, he's in New Jersey and I'm in California. The SS muffler is a dual in so I'm going to have my head pipe modified. I'm not going to cut the factory Y at the flange, instead I'm going to have a Magnaflow Y flanged and then bolt it to the factory Y so it'll almost be like an X pipe. Then run dual 2.5" pipes into the SS muffler and have the tailpipe in the stock spot. I'm hoping for a mellow rumble, I hope it sounds kinda like a Z28 factory exhaust.

Why not just ditch the cats and run dual 3" pipe off the headers into the muffler? I bet it would have a nice agressive growl.

Aggresive isn't what I'm looking for, I only want about 2-3 db's louder than stock. I can't ditch the cats, smog checks in California, not worth my time and effort.
