Take your time and don't rush. If you get frustrated with the install just walk away for a few minutes. Take note of the Y pipe install, if you cant get it to fit with enough clearance you might have to have it massaged a bit by a good exhaust shop. Don't forget to take out your spark plugs!

why not just get some high flow cats and be done with it? the stock cats flow like crap. get some new ones and be legal for the smog check.

Stock cats are already high flow, no sense in buying new ones.

I kept my stock cats with LTs on my 04. I didn't want a loud Tahoe, especially with cam, blower and exhaust.
