Default Addings cats to ory

Sup guys, tried searching but cant really find many answers. I have speed engineering LT's and ory going into 2005 silverado 2 wheel drive. In order to save some $ and keep the noise and smell down I want to add highflow cats to the set up. Want to see if someone has done it before if so how'd you go about doing it and if possible any pics?
Thanks

Interested as well. I'm in the same boat. Have a set of LPP's for my '06 I'm planning to install but want to add cats.

Get some spun cats, Magnaflows are popular, have them spliced in. Any competent exhaust shop should be able to do this.

Your fuel smell isn't because of your cats, it's your tune btw. I had cats, blew them out and I still don't have a bad exhaust smell.

Google is your friend.

This is what I'm doing.
Maggy 59956 metallic spun cat, started as 2.5" in/out cat and turned it down to 3" in/out. I turned it down a little more so its a little smaller. This is my drivers side. Passenger will be similar.

I used Thunderbolt cats for mine, just barely fit in before the bend in the driver's side and had just enough room for the passenger side before the merge.
