Default BBK long tubes

I'm thinking about getting bbk lingtube headers. What will i have to change beyond the headers like cats, h-pipe, ect. to fit in. I want to bolt it right up if that's capible.

Our long tubes for the 2009 are a bolt in setup. You will also need our catted Xpipe. The long tubes carry part numbers 1641 for chrome finished, 16410 for the ceramic. The matching X pipe is part number 1637. The chrome list for 469.99, the ceramic 569.99 and the X pipe with converters is 399.99. The stainless versions are part number 16415, at 719.99 and the matching X pipe with cats, 16985, is 499.99. The kits include all bolts, gaskets and O2 extension wires required to install. The steel X pipes only fit the steel headers and the same is true for the stainless, the stainless X pipe only fits the stainless headers. As with any aftermarket hi flow cats, a tune will be required to turn off the rear O2 sensors or you'll get po420, po430 CEL lights for cat effiency. Although, the Camaro guys are having pretty good luck by installing spacers in with the rear sensors to combat the CEL's without a tune. An 18mm spark plug antifouler installed into the rear sensor bung then the O2 sensor installed pulls the sensor out of the exhaust stream and is fooling the sensor. Seems to be working for them.
Hope that helps!!

Lots of choices out there for headers. Do your research before buying any of them. Some fit way better than others.
