Post Headers for a 305 TBI

What's everyone using for headers? (or does anyoen have an opinion of something to look at or away from ?)

I'm trying to find a good set to compliment a more agressive cam/hea setup.

order headers, cat and cat back for a z28/iroc with a single 3inch cat. basically buy all your exhaust parts as if you have an LB9 in the car. if you order the pipes specifically made for the LO3 everything comes down to the stock 2.5nch tubing and that is no help. the iroc stuff will be 1 5/8 primary headers, 3inch collector, 3inch cat, and 3 inch cat back.
i would recomend slp or edelbrock headers, 3inch cat or cat delete pipe, and an american thunder single in/out flowmaster set up. a few local guys run that set up and it sounds great and gave nice performance gains.

Sounds like a good combo. I've had bad luck with Random Tech's High-flow cats though. They showed up all clogged up, the installer said they'd never flow worth crap so we skipped them.

Thanks for the tips. She's gonna sound great
