I do believe that they did? I think i remember seeing them on www.slponline.com along time ago for LS1.

The 2OTL will be a collectors item for sure(dont know how long it will be before it reaches that status), just look at how much that one on ebay is going for. The price is double what it cost brand new in 97'.

I've contacted the seller again requesting a part number. I also asked if they might be willing to negotiate for less than the listed price.

We'll see.

800 bucks, holy crap. You could probably do a nice custom exhaust for less than that. Like I said before, my 20TL was only 123$; I love it, but no way would I have bought it for 800. Just bid the same as what you would pay for the Magnaflow... maybe the guy doesn't have a reserve set. You just might win it. If not, buy the maganflow.

It looks like they've got it set up as Buy It Now only with no bidding. I called SLP today and got part numbers for the 2OTL. They made 3 different flavors, one for the single cat LT1's, one for the dual cat LT1's and one for the LSx Camaros. The seller claims to not have a part number. He said he actually has two of them that are identical, but one was used. He's supposedly going to send me pics of the used one because he doesn't want to take the new one out of the box.

If I knew it was the one designed for my car, I would probably make an offer substantially less than what they're asking. I have no idea how different the designs would be from model to model. On the dual cat LT1's and LSx's, were the cats part of the Y-Pipe? I'm no exhaust expert, but I'm assuming they were, and if so the exhaust could probably be made to work regardless of the design.

You use to be able to buy it thru SLP I think, but not anymore.

Factory option on '97 SS, I believe it was standard on '96. One of the best sounding/flowing catbacks out there. '96 & 97 had dual cats iirc. The system could be fabbed up to work on a '94.

The dual cat kit will have a straight intermediate pipe... the single cat kit will have an 's' on the front of it. I don't know about the LSx. But judging by the picture he has posted on ebay that's for a dual cat car, and you'll need an 's' pipe to make it work on your 94. Unless you have longtubes and ORY, in which case you have to cut the pipe to fit up to the tail piece of the Y. Then I don't think it matters which kit you get.

My plan is to do headers & ORY Pipe at the same time I do the exhaust. My guess is the pic on EBay is just a stock SLP photograph, but maybe not. Of all the sounds clips I've heard, I think that exhaust sounds the best & closest to the factory exhaust on my '94. I always thought the factory exhaust sounded very good.

Here is the photo I received of the used 2OTL. The vendor claims the new one is identical, but does not have a part number.

Can anyone tell what year Camaro this exhaust is designed for and whether it would be difficult to adapt to a '94 if it's designed for an LS1 or dual cat LT1? Based on some info in this thread, I'm guessing it's for either a late model LT1 or LS1.

Looks like it's for a late model (dual cat) LT1. If you do the ORY with long tubes it'll bolt right up... If you wanna use it with the stock exhaust on your 94 you'll need an 'S' pipe to make it work (I still have the S pipe that I cut off of mine if you need it later).
