Does anybody know the diameter of the cats that come with the bbk headers? I'm looking for some cats for my pacesetter headers and I found someone selling the bbk cats for 50 dollars. Just wanted to know if anybody knew if they'd fit

Diameter of what, the actual cat part that has the cardboard looking stuff or the part that lines up to the exhaust?

The diameter of the part that lines up to the header. The part that lines up to the exhaust should be 2.5" if I'm not mistaken

I think that its gonna be tricky because the part that lines up to the header is kinda like a round ending that going into the headers end.. so u would need to have the same ending on ur headers for it to work

I have the Pacesetter long tubes and the end of the long tube is 3" and the cats that I
purchased from Pacesetter are actually mid pipes that start at 3" and taper down to 2 1/2".

Yea, I know the end of the pacesetter header is 3" for sure. I figured the cat would taper down to 2.5" since the cat back is 2.5 and it has to connect. My question was whether the bbk cat was 3" in diameter so that I could connect it to the pacesetter header
