Header question

I have edelbrock headers and no y-pipe, and just found out edelbrock no longer sells headers. Does anyone have any other option that would work with this? I believe the cat has a 3 inch inlet

Thanks in advance.

Your only options are to find one used, have someone make you a new one (original edelbrock one was kinda crappy anyways) or switch to another brand of headers that flows better anyways. I have a edelbrock y-pipe but its not in the best shape. It was cut and modified to clear some hotchkis subframe connectors and has an O2 bung welded in. Its also got some nice rusty scale going on that i keep at bay once a year giving it some vht paint. You can shoot me an offer if your interested in trying it out and i can look into shipping but it wont be cheap. I think your better bet would be going Dyno Don and having him fab you a Y that flows better than the edelbrock one did anyways. Their junction where the passenger and drivers side header flowed together was painfully terrible.

Re: Header question

headers almost always call for custom fabrication anyway.
