Here is the link to the site that was recommended to me. If you read the description it says it comes with a Y-pipe.

Isn't that Y-pipe at the bottom the "FireCone" collector?

no, the firecone collector is the piece where all the header tubes merge together into one. the pic you just linked to looks like headers for a v-6. the jba headers will come with just the headers, which will attach to your stock pipes, then into your cats, then the Y pipe.

umm, hmm ok that sucks. Well, if they don't come with that Y-pipe maybe I'll get something else. Thanks for clearing that up though. I thought I found a pic of headers for the 4.7 that looked just like that. But it must have been a generic pic. I didn't count the tubes.
Not that it matters But my exhaust goes manifold to down pipe to Y-pipe which is in front of a single cat. I don't have a cat on each down pipe like I think you are describing.
