Hooker 2055 y-pipe

Is there anyway I can order just the y-pipe for the hooker 2055's. Mine hit a log and then my oil pan which in turn hit my oil pump, the log then procceded to take out my electric exhaust cut-out. Completely closed the y-pipe shut right in the middle, big hole in oil pan, killed oil pump, and broke the motor off the cutout. So I really need a y-pipe for some hooker 2055's any help would be appreciated. Like where and how to order.

Thanks

Jason.

What some members have reported doing:

Call up the Holley customer support number. Tell them you need just the y-pipe for the 2055 headers. They'll ask for prepayment, and the next time they make a 2055 run they'll make an extra y-pipe for you and send it out. This reportedly took about 8 weeks for those who did it.

Wow that is a long time to wait. I guess I will do it and just use my bent y-pipe to piece something together so I dont have to run open headers, because it is killing my gas mileage and my hearing.

Thanks for you help. Jason

You might get lucky and get your payment to them the week they make the run.

well it got the collectors too and bent then up pretty good. I am going to take it to a muffler shop to see if they can fix it, except today I got curbed and got a flat tire. Man I have some goodluck. First A log hits me then a yukon pulls in front of me and a curb hit me. I am just getting beat up.

I probably could but I would like the mandrel bends and the great fitment of the orginal y-pipe because it was nice. After I make sure my rim isnt bent and holds air I will go the to exhaust shop and when I find my camera I will post some pics of all the damage.

I called and they told me there is no way they can sell it seperate. I called the holley tech support line and they connected me to the Hooker department. Is there another number I can call to get some help with this.

Thanks
