Hooker 2055 Y-pipe question

Does the hooker 2055 Y-pipe change the location of the cat? Will any Cat-back made for the stock location fit right?

It's made to fit directly to the cat in '86-'90 TPI single-cat applications. So, any direct-fit cat & cat-back for that application would fit with the 2055's.

I Have to install the sytem on an 84. Is the cat location different for an 84 carb then the later tpi systems?
