Re: so i got some headers...

Most muffler shops will use crush bends and restrict the flow, as opposed to mandrel bends (expensive machines)... Unless they use mandrel bent tubing and custom make (expensive)... Call Edelbrock and see how much for their y pipe...

Re: so i got some headers...

i think you can get the y pipe from summit. I don't know what you are running but for my edelbrock tes headers for the 305 350 tpi with single cat i was able to get a replacement y pipe from summit a couple times already. Mine seem to rot ever 2 or 3 years.

http://www.summitracing.com/parts/EDL-65930/ here is the link. Its for tpi headers from 86 to 90 i believe. Mine have the air tubes and no spot for the heat tube like u find on tbi cars. I think its for the 6872 headers.
