yea, Mac did away with them a while back. Tho Mac says you have to use their mid-pipe exclusively you can find another brand that'll fit

where i get my inspection, there is no sniffer (NY), so i use the o/r h with homemade mil's for no codes. if that doesn't work, down to the junk yard for two similar cats, cut them in half, and strap them around your o/r h for the looks of a cat for visual inspection. if you do have the sniffer test, there is no other option then real cats...

I think bassani, Kook, and edelbrock have been proven to show the most gains...

With the edelbrock header showing more gains than even the other two... something like 12rwhp over macs..
