Finally!!
I finally got an appointment with my wrench turner to get the following done on Tuesday:
1. CircleD 3200
2. Texas Speed 1 3/4 LT's (ypipe and cats)
3. Tune update
I'm kinda winging it on the LT's, ORY and cats. I've got 3in metallic spun cats (Magnaflow) and some band clamps. I should be able to do what I want, we'll see.
I've been spraying my stock exhaust bolts down for the last 2 days and will spray them down everyday until Tuesday. I don't want or need any broken bolts.
Pics to follow.

Hey man good luck. I didnt have any problems when i did my headers. I had 78000 miles on my thruck tho. Just take ur time with the bolts turn them very slow. I turned them left then right very slow to start them loose. Engine must be completely cool. I also pulled my front wheels and fender liners out. It made it really easy. The bolts r rite in front of u and ur not hanging over the fenders.

Soaking until they become easy to work with.although I
Wouldn't mind replacing them if they're rusted..?

what is this on? i had 2 broken bolts when i put my LT's on, but its not really a big deal if you know a welder, if they're aluminum heads like most LS engines, welds won't stick to aluminum so its no big deal to weld a nut onto the broken stud and then back it out with a wrench or socket. good luck!
It's a 2006 ECSB Sierra. I've got a couple of things done so far, LSR 265 cam, 4.11's, MIT and HP Tuners.

I would recommend these going back together...........
ARP Ls1 Stainless steel header studs with locking bolts

I've got a set of ARP bolts. Wish I'd known about these a week ago or I would have ordered some.

Well fellas,
The LTs and ypipe are in. Jeebus that cam sings now.
When the transmission was getting pulled, I timed my mechanic and it took him 50min from the time he walked up under it to the time it was sitting on the transmission jack.
HOLY HELL what a difference that thing makes. To be fair, it feels a little loose for my liking but I'm getting used to it the more I drive it.
After it was put back together, we drove it around, checked the fluid, etc etc. I then got the bright idea to "test" the stall. LOL.
From a dead stop, matted the throttle down and both tires lit up through 1st AND 2nd gear.
When I drove it home, I didn't even turn the radio on...lol...
