Pretty Sure.... Will check with my Mechanic today and post later today. He's also the authorized Tubi Distributor for Florida.

On a 6.0 you have 2 "sets" of cats. My car only has one set. You should leave the first set on, which is right off the motor (or most people do), then run the test pipes where the 2nd set is, which leads up to the muffler.

Sorry did not see mechanic yesterday, will see him today to confirm fit.

Test pipes replace the cats, simple bolt on bolt off. Increase power, sound and reduce heat.

Do you remove all the cats when test pipes are hooked up?

Murray Bacchus... in Hollywood.... most excellent. Worked for the dealer before going independent and he's the authorized Tubi distributor.

I'm going to keep the Tubi's.... so never mind.

The Tubi straight pipes sound killer... a little too loud in the morning on cold start while the choke is still on. Also, minor backfire on down shift due to zero back pressure.

The new pipes work fine, no backfire, but may be a little too quite...miss the Tubi rumble... need more tweaking so I have to hold on to them till I get the right formula..

FL Homesite - let me know if u want Murray's #
