Y-Pipe Differences

Guys,
I have the TES headers from Edelbrock right now, Going to 1 3/4 SLP's sometime soon. I'd like to know if anybody can confirm if the y-pipe from Edelbrock is the same as the SLP y-pipe?
If I don't have to cut the Edelbrock y-pipe off and put the SLP one on I'd be REALLY happy...

Thanks,
Brendan

Haha, Ok, Just wanted to see if there was a difference at all. I may just have to wait until I get the y-pipe and then compare the two. The engine is out of the car right now.. so I can do an easy comparison( go to www.geocities.com/leirch_/teardown if you'd like to check it out)

From that pic the angles where the headers connect apper to be slightly different.

Aside from materials used, better is only a matter of opinion.

Thanks deadbird, that answers the question to a T. Guess I'll have to swap the y-pipes..

Thanks again,
Brendan
