Default Pacesetter Long tubes

Im looking at some brand new pacesetter Longtubes for the HOE! do these things come with a collector? in the picture and discripion it doesnt say anything about it! and what all do you have to do to make the LT's fit up to your factory crap?

Thanks,
Clint

i installed the pacesetters and y pipe a couple of weeks ago. the quality and fitment were right on. as far as the slip fit collector, i used the walker brand pre-formed stainless band clamps. they sealed perfectly. no leaks yet.

Not sure the guy wants to spend a grand for headers. Especially when the Paces can make the same power for a hell of alot less.

the ORY doesn't have cats, and it's only like $125 extra. $500 for the package.

other than that here's pretty much what you will need.

O2 safe anti-seize
Red Threadlock (optional)
OE exhaust gaskets (depending on condition of yours. i reused mine)
Walker or Torc-Tite Pre-formed Stainless Band Clamps (i wouldn't use the crappy u-blot style)
Spark Plugs just in case.
