You can use the BBK's, just need to reweld the Driver side O2 bung to the opposite side of the pipe!

I think MAC LTs work on autos and I heard one guy say he put Bassani on his even though they say the Bassanis dont fit autos.

Hookers, Hedman, MAC, will fit for sure. Ed's the only guy I know of that has BBKs, but like he said he did have to modify them.

Yes. The MACs use the standard ball and socket flange at the end of the collector but the Hookers use a slip fit. Any exhaust shop can modify the slip fit if you decided to go the Hooker brand route.

BBK LOng tubes

I have them on my 02 gt auto . They do fit ! Only slight modification is required . You do not even need to move the o2 bungs . the only thing I had to do was grind the pass side flange about a 1/2 inch so it would clear the trans pan otherwise no issues ! Chris

01gt.auto. I have the full slp exhaust long tube, xpipe, loudmouth cat-back, and I love it. Sounds great and fits great.
