good deal?

Went to NAPA and i asked for headers and y pipe. They told me they could get me both for $410 out the door, he cut me a deal, cut off $100. I found the parts on there website:

ypipe: https://www.napaonline.com/Catalog/C...548_0177343322

headers: https://www.napaonline.com/Catalog/C...503_0177384635

wondering if its a good deal or i could find something for a bit less?

I have a 1989 Camaro 305 TBI 700R4, not worried about smog since I don't need it in the state i'm living in.

plus I have stock 2 1/4 pipes, with 2.5" cat back flowmaster 80

Re: good deal?

first of all those are shortie type headers. and that y pipe will not fit at all. i think you may need to look around some more.

Re: good deal?

those hookers sell for $165 at summit... that Y pipe is not even close to what you would need.
here is a link to summit:http://www.summitracing.com/parts/HOK-2460HKR/


Y pipe you can use for those heads is here : http://www.summitracing.com/parts/HOK-16767HKR/


so total would be $406 + 18 shipping... tell them to get you the Y pipe i listed and you are saving a small bit of money

What is that extra pipe that comes with it? Is that a cat bypass?

I might as well get it through summit, and score a discount code somewhere online..

I know they're shorties but headers are headers, replacement exhaust manifolds. Also why would the y pipe not fit?

Re: good deal?

because the y pipe needs to go around the oil pan for clearance

I just passed emissions on my car. So I have another 2 years now, once I do this swap i'll have a new cat on right before next emissions to pass. My smog pump makes a horrible noise as it is now, so i dont know if it even works.
