Out of the options out there I am planning on going with BBK LT's w/high-flow cats. The American Racing LT's are nice, but way too high for me. The OBX don't include cats and I would like to keep cats. I don't know much about Stainless Works LT's.

We recommend Stainless Works or ARH for quality American made headers. They both use the best stainless steal possible so they will never rust. They have superior welds and both have excellent designs for amazing power gains. You couldn't go wrong with either. BBK also offers a pretty fair priced stainless steal header. We carry all three options and love to Camaro5 discount!

The gains should be the same for all LTs and the sound depends on your exhaust.

Headers will make your exhaust tone louder only.

Stainless steel are the recommended ones.

The rest are coatings that are not really important. I live in a city that is hotter than any city in the US and Ive been using those Stainless works LTs during the summer with no problems at all.
