stock y-pipe
ive recently got a pacesetter catback exhaust and was wondering if there is anyone that makes a stock y-pipe to use with them. reason i need a y-pipe is the person who had the car before me decided he could go mudbogging in a thirdgen and the y-pipe is crushed in not to bad but i think i should get a new one anyways.

A '92 350 TPI should have dual cats. If yours doesn't, it either didn't start with a 350 TPI, or somebody replaced the factory exhaust with a single cat.
Dual cats techincally have the "Y" after the cats, so what is typically called the "y-pipe" is actually 2 separate pipes, each going to a cat.
You can get replacements. If you actually have a 305, or have a car that originally had a 305 TPI single cat that was replaced with a 350, it's a pretty poor exhaust system.
Check www.partsamerica.com for the replacement parts. The pipes come with the cats. Only $700.
Ever considered headers? Hooker 2055HKR come with the y-pipe to a single 3" cat. About $430 for the headers, Catco direct fit 9118 converter $135 - both from www.summitracing.com.
