Default MAC exhaust question

Looks like I bought a car with MAC shorty headers. Does anyone know if I want to put either an original system or aftermarket behind these headers, what would work as a straight bolt on. Are these headers made to fit an original system of cats pipes mufflers, etc? It has real crap on it right now exhaust.
Thanks

Yeah anything will bolt up to shorty style! It's the LT style that has different collector sizes and shapes! Those things rust out like crazy! You can get a set of LT's stainless which retain heat much better than mild steel for around $280 on ebay for Fox body and $480 for SN95 and newer. I fu.kin hate that they charge so much more for the newer body styles. They have the same amount of material. I guess they think people who have newer more expensive cars can either afford it or is worth putting that much money into!

I've got the MAC headers and had them for about 2 years and they've worked great and not rusted. Get a MAC o/r h pipe and the MAC catback, it sounds great.
