Hooker 2055's with a T56

Will the Y-pipe clear okay? I have line on a unused set for a good price, would like the seller to send them to JetHot for coating first, JH will send to me. Thing is, if I have to slice the Y-pipe up to fit...hence my question.

Pretty sure the Hooker Y-pipes follow the stock routing, they never come near the hydraulic clutch slave that causes some exhausts not to fit the manual trans cars.

They worked just fine on my car.

The Y-pipe crosses over just behind the oil pan so it fits without an issue. The T56 is physically smaller anyways so if anything there is even more room to work with.

Thanks Gents, deal is too good to pass up, but nice to know I can save a few bucks on shipping.

Thanks again!

Re: Hooker 2055's with a T56

Do yourself a favor, use some grease or something to mark out how the y-pipe sits on the collector's ball flange after its all mounted up. Mark it off, then port it.

The 2055 collectors use a ball flange setup for fitment, but that also cause some small restriction. So once you know how they fit on your car you can open them up a little for a bit more flow.
