    I'd say if you don't have to run them then don't.

    I have no inspections, but I do like to be clean. I am only reconsidering cuz it may complicate the install. Any inputs on how well the LSx responds either with or without cats?

    Well I've had several f bodies, vettes and gto's as well as my now swapped truck. I've gone cat less on every one of them. They respond very well to a free exhaust. There will be the few that say cats don't cause any loss in power and maybe they are right but, it's easier to get the power with a free flowing exhaust. This is going to turn into a big debate
