What happened to the Banks catback?
I know Engine Tech and Fabrication used to exclusively sell the Banks "Stinger" catback on their website, but it appears either they went out of business or their site is located at a different URL that I don't know.
In any case, is there any other vendor that sells the Banks catback? In particular, I'm looking for the one with the dual exhaust tips (the one that is supposed to go on 4th gens).
I'm finally out of debt and I'm ordering Hooker 2055s next week. I've always wanted the Banks system to match up with these headers after I heard a sound clip on the forums from a fellow member. It appears entech has dropped off the face of the earth though, so unless someone else knows where else it can be bought I guess I'm SOL.

Not sure what happened to those guys. Maybe their site is down. Really nice guys to deal with. If you can find the stinger setup I would highly recommend it, I have it on my car and love it.
Hey, I have the hooker 2055's (jet hot) and the banks stinger cat-back with a magnaflow cat on my car. I love the sound, but I know when I get my LT1 in it will sound so much better.
Anyway, I no that's not much help - but I'll look around and see if I have a different phone number from my invoice that you can call..

Cool, let me know if you can find anything.
I know Speed Demon Motorsports (speeddemonmotorsports.com) sells Banks catback systems but it appears its only for fourth gen LT1s and LS1s. I might give them a call to see if they carry a third gen system.

I dug through my receipts and stuff, and I found the invoice. It's from November. It doesn't list a phone number, but it has the address:
Engine Technologies and Fabrication
LLC
4646 South 160 West
Murray, UT 84107
Also I found the banks stinger manual with their address.
Gale Banks Engineering
546 Duggan Avenue
Azusa, CA 91702
(626) 969-9600
If you get ahold of Entec&Fab, they sold my the system for $250+tax+shipping so it was about $310 total. That's much less than what they had listen on their site.

Did you call them or did you order it off their website? I called them and the person on the line had no idea what I was talking about as far as the catback for thirdgens was concerned. I can't seem to find any information on the website about it, either.

I ordered mine from Entech last year. This is what I had in my notes,

Great guys to deal with. Ask for the 3rd gen cat back with the 4th gen muffler and tailpipes.
