Header Question

Im looking to buy a set of longtube headers for my 96 T/A and was wondering what the disandvantage is of not have O2 bosses. Secondly, what is the most affordable/decent Ypipe for this setup?

Without O2 bungs you have nowhere to put O2 sensors which your car needs to make the engine run right.

not a good idea....you want to keep them as close to the collector as possible to get an accurate reading

as far as i know anyways....

The ones without the 02 bungs are probably for carburated cars

As for the y-pipe question...I had mine made at my local exhaust shop. You'll save alot of money going that route...not to mention that you won't have to deal with any fitment issues.
