Headers up to the cat?

Was wondering if any companies made headers that go up to the stock catalytic converter? I have an exhaust leak somewhere and I've been contemplating headers for a while anyway, so I figured I would finally get that problem out of the way. Does anyone know? Is it even worth or should I wait to redo the entire exhaust system?

You could look for a slip fit conector to fit the headers & cat. SLP used to make one. Depends on the header & cat size though.
