Check your fluids. Has the weather warmed up quite a bit to notice? Have you checked the ground where you park normally for leaks? These are the first things to check, and you should do this on a regular basis problem or not before one develops. Good luck.

I know when I installed 3" magnaflow catback in my mustang gt everything is much hotter than before. Being 1/2 inch bigger than stock it's closer to the undercarraige and it radiates heat like a mofo. As for the hot air coming from underneath your LT I'd recheck to make sure you don't have any exhaust leaks at the connection points. As for the sizzle, have you been running the AC? I know the evap drains in the vicinity of the cats/transmission area. So if you're running the AC it may just be the normal evaporated water draining onto the exhaust pipes' new exhaust configuration.
