Was the X pipe Magnaflow as well? YES
No drone, even when you pull away from a stop?Doesn't seems to ... i went on a test drive and TRIED to make it drone to no avail. Long tubes help eliminate the 6.0L drone
I'll post up numbers of parts shortly.

I might consider those catalytic converters. The last pair I bought were the OBD-II Legal 3" in/out oval ones that I paid $$$$ for. The lasted all of 5 months before they had both completely disintegrated and blown out the tailpipes. It was the rattling that pissed me off more than even all the wasted money. After looking at my stock cats and the way they are constructed (round) I figured round was a better way to make something that goes through huge temperature swings. Those round one's you've got might be worth a try. I just need to get better service out of them! I ended up welding 3" pipes to my stock ones, but that's not right. (Stock ones holding up fine BTW)
