Hooker Shortie Headers

I Have an 85 iroc, I want the Hooker Super Comp Shortie Headers for years 86-90. From what I have read on here the only thing I should have to worry about is the cat corrrect ? unless someone can point me to something specifically for an 85

Thanks

Right, the cat.

Best bet would be to get an '86-'90 TPI single-cat application direct-fit replacement cat. And same application cat-back unless you modify what you have now.

Worst idea is to modify the Hooker y-pipe to fit your current cat.

getting a new cat would be your best bet. moddin a y-pipe to fit a stock cat would not only be a drag, but why not benefit from getting a high-flo cat like i did.

Thanks for the replies, do you guys have a link to a good hi-flow cat that will work with these headers ?

Thanks again
