i have the magnaflow direct fit y pipe with dual converters part number 23479 ...and right now its hook up to my stock manifold ...if i get a set of dyno dons or any other after market headers would i have to change that y pipe ..i am hoping not since its nice stainless steel and mandrel brent .....

 

I checked out your kit.
1. did you throw the convertors away if not scrap them they are $100 each easily, buy a set of headers with that cash. lol
2. did you have the pipes welded or clamped.
If you clamped them then un-clamp them and change the collector flanges- you have a 2 bolt flange on the them now, change to a 3 bolt. This will give you a bigger selection on headers.
If you welded, no biggie. Just look for the matching headers or any header with a 2 bolt design.

Its not confusing, but i would recomment getting a 3 bolt from autozone, it comes with gaskets also.
By the way nice set-up, thats a very sharp kit for the money.

anyone?

 

When I put mine in they were very close to fitting my edelbrock y pipe, but not close enough. I don't think it will work. PM dyno don and ask him

 

yeah i get ahold of don and ask him thanks

 

Sorry man, the stock y-pipe is set up to connect to stock manifolds. I doubt it will connect to any headers out there, not even Don's.

 

I guess no one understood my message. hmmm.

 

it has the same stock bends but the magnaflow pipe is much larger in dia ...i just didnt know with after market headers like dyno dons would they mate up in the same location?

 

I think I understood your question. You want to buy headers that will match up to your Magnaflow y-pipe. And I said, no aftermarket headers will bolt up to any stock-style y-pipe. Headers and y-pipes are designed to go together, and you cannot mix and match them.

 

well looks like ill be selling a real nice Y pipe soon lol

 

I agree, that's why most headers come with their own y-pipe, or pipes to match up to the y-pipe. It sounds like a good idea- header manifolds that bolt up to the y- pipe. Glock, if you get a set of Edelbrock headers (or something similar) for a dual cat car, you don't have to cut that much off the y-pipe to mate them up so you could still use it. Go to Summit's web site and look up a set of Edelbrock headers for a dual cat car and download the install instructions and you will see what modifications you will need to do to the y-pipe. Like I said you don't have to cut that much off.
