Help!!!!

I need a new y-pipe as mine is all but rusted out. I ordered one from a shop here in the UK but the flanges were completely different.....i told them i was running headers.and they said no probs it'll mate up.but guess what..it doesn't.

The pipe they've supplied me is for a standard car whereas mine has an unknown make of header ( they were on the car when i got it! ) They have a 3 bolt triangular flange which bolts onto what at the moment is 2 into 1 y-pipe ( both join at the same place unlike this "factory replacement" which joins up at different points of the pipe )

Heres some pics which might help




Any ideas what brand they are and which aftermarket y-pipes will mate up????

Thanks for your help!!!!!!!!

Cheers

They look like Edelbrock's to me.

Can you get under the car and get a pic of the collector? That would definitely identify them.

 

Formul8!!

Heres some pics...do they help?




Thanks

Phil

 

Hmmm...I have no idea what those are.

I do have two brand new sets of SLP headers w/install kit, all Jet-Hot coated. One is 1 5/8" w/dual cats and the other is 1 3/4" with single cat.

Shipping to the UK will be expensive, but these are ready to go with y-pipe and all!

 

Yeah that'd be great, i'd love to run a set of those............but Mr Customs always takes his cut as well...just had a load of stuff delivered from Summit and got stung for an extra $100!!!!!!!!!!!! It'd just work work out too expensive..many thanks anyway :hail:

Anyone else got a clue as what these headers are???

Cheers

Phil

 

Yeah , they are hedman shortys...keep'em or someone will talk you into those restrictive ball flange terds where all you can brag about is your big y-pipe

 

Cheers RICHRAD

So they're hedmans......i'd better order a hedman y-pipe then!!

Does anyone have a pic of the hedman y-pipe just so i can make double sure?


Thanks

Phil

 

It's your y-pipe that convinced me.. On the hedman headers the flanges are free(not welded) from the collector. When assembled, they are compressed (with whatever gasket used together) for a seal....so they could be the Hedmans once you take them apart to find floating flanges....

 

RICHRAD,

Thanks again......i've had another look around for some pics of the hedman y-pipe and found a few and you are absolutely bang on!!!!!


Definately hedmans!!!

Cheers..you've really helped me out on this one!

Phil

 

Yup, those look just like my Hedmans.....

 

Firstly, thanks for your help with this guys!!

I dropped the y-pipe off yesterday for a closer look......guess what? The flanges were free to move about once i slackened them off......so definately hedmans........ I know i said i'd checked against a picture but i just like to be 100% b4 ordering a new part!!!!!


Cheers!!!!!!!!!
