I'm buying these hedman shorties. Summit says to buy this y-pipe with it but the collector style on the headers is ball and socket, yet the y-pipe is a 3 bolt flange. So my logic tells me that it won't fit. If I am correct, then this y pipe is the one I need, correct?

 

I think thats a misprint. I believe those headers are the 3 bolt flange headers and these are the ball and socket. Someone please correct me if im wrong. http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1∂=HED%2D68479&N=700+4294923429+4294839039+4294918680+400143+4294908153+4294907958+4294924930+115&autoview=sku

 

Yeah, that is a misprint. I have those headers, and that y-pipe and it fits fine.

 

Thanks for the help guys. Just ordered the parts. These should sound good with the jegs/magnaflow system i have on there now.

 

I have those headers with the stock exhaust and a gutted cat. Sounds like garbage so im purchasing the ypipe and a hooker aero chamber cat back this weekend. cdacda13 let me know how it all sounds when your done. What part of Jersey do you reside btw?

 

Once I get the headers, y-pipe and new cat on, I'll post a sound clip.

No, it is NOT a mis print, they make both, one with the 3-bolt flange, and another y-pipe with the ball and socket flange.

It IS a misprint for those headers. The ones the topic poster linked are the 3 bolt, not the ball and socket.

 

Oh, ok my bad, I thought he was talking the y-pipe was a misprint, sorry. Yup you are right, the headers are 3-bolt, I just looked quick, and my headers are the ball and socket flange version.

 

Heh. Im just curious as to why the ball and socket ones are a tad bit more expensive. are they easier to bolt on or do they fit better?

 

They are suppose to be better, they dont use gaskets, and are not suppose to leak.

 

i like them much better than ones with gaskets ive instaled a set on a friends 83 camaro and a set of longtubes with ball socket on both my 82 and 86 t/a 82 had hooker shortys with 3bolt flange and it was a p.i.t.a they always leaked

 

do you have the 4th gen magnaflow system? if so i cant wait to hear what it sounds like to cause i have the 4th gen one and i really wanna hear it with headers on.
