Edelbrock CatBack on a 2000 Firebird

[Justin Kirkham]

Although the Edelbrock Catback exhaust says it will only work up to the 97 models, will it still work for a 2000? I was wondering because it is the exhaust I have decided on, and it was said previously on this board that it would easily work on the 98. P.S. Also, I was looking to doing a high flow cat at the same time. The 3' generic model from summit, for $60, will work, right? Thanks.

I have the same edelbrock kit on my camaro, it doesnt fit perfect. They had to custom hang it which was fine with me. When I had it installed, I had my 3" in/out hi-flow cat installed. One thing I was unaware of is that the I-pipe on the Edelbrock tapers from 2.5" at the S-pipe to 3" at the muffler. Fits directly on to the stock s-pipe. The sound is good and deep. A little too muffled at first, but now that it has broken in, it sounds great. I would suggest getting the hi-flow cat put on while they are under there, that is where I gained most of the power from.

How could you tell that if you put it on at the same time as the catback?
