I am getting the Pro's with the Random high flow cats. From what I've heard, the LG's are the easiest. The Kooks, supposedly, are one of the hardest. I'll find out soon!

Good luck with them. I was talking to a guy up in Ohio on corvetteforum who had gotten the same setup I did right around the same time. He and a friend of his did the install and said it took them around 12 hours all total for the job. He told he that knowing what he knows now, he would have paid someone else to do it. But he's around my age (55), so perhaps you have less miles under your belt and this wouldn't be the chore it is to us older guys.
Are you getting them directly from LGM? The cats I got were not the Random Tech ones, but something similar looking. Didn't have that polished stainless look to them and looked like just plain old stainless steel. No big deal since no one is going to see them anyway.
Oh, btw, from what I have heard, you are going to really need to bang those cats and pipes ALL the way on to keep from getting some minor exhaust leaks. Bear that in mind so you don't have to go back under your car to fix it later.

Ivo says it usually takes around 4-6 hours. Hopefully we don't have any problems. Otherwise, it would be easier to have someone else do it. We don't have a lift either, it'll be on jack stands.

I think the last mod I have in mind to install is the Shaner S3 throttle body that I have in the workroom. Been spending the last week or so with the Dremel polishing the OUTSIDE of it to make it purty looking. Just about done.
But I'm going to hold off putting in on until I get this alternator gremlin exorcised first. I don't like having too many variables at once to have to deal with. Going to take a ride today for a bit to see if my squirting some contact cleaner and reseating the plug on the alternator has changed anything. There is supposed to be a plug on the starter as well, but darned if I can see it from the top. If it can't be reached from the top, then I can't do it because I don't have any way to get to it from underneath.
