LT install status
Ok, here's the status. I got a set of LT Pacesetter's used and finally cleaned-up the collectors as the pipes on the previous truck were just cut off. Something I noticed while I was removing the pieces of old pipe and the welds is the ceramic needs to ground off to make a good weld. Tapped the O2 bung holes. Got my OEM exhuast bolts all cut to proper lenght, OEM gaskets. Pacesetter 3" Y pipe. I'll take the cats (OEM 03 cats) to the machine shop tomorrow and cut the ends off of them to remove the choke points on either ends. I got a lift lined up this weekend and a helper. So this looks like I'm finally ready for the header install. OBTW, Red is running great and I am excited by what the headers might do. Springs and cam next week if all goes well. As a side note, if this all goes well and I don't get caught up trying to sort shit out, I'm going to drop her another inch all around. wish me luck...
Edit: I am following Ryans lead as he has a really good LT install and provided a ton of pictures. Thanks Ryan.

LT's aren't bad to install at all. And with a lift you should be golden.

I appreciate the support, I feel it will be a easy install. I just got to get my fat ass under the truck to get it done.
Thanks,

Oh, in my younger years it didn't so much bother me. But I've become slow and lazy. But it'll be done this weekend and I stop complaining... lol
