Anyone With Hawks Headers & Auto? Chime in!
Hey Everyone.
Im working through my swap at a pretty decent rate. Ive got almost everything figured out except exhaust.
Ive got my truck manifolds i could modify to fit in, however, i only want to do the exhaust once, as it doesnt seem like the funnest part of the swap.
Ive seen about 50 pictures of T56 car's with the stainless works headers, but no automatics with the headers.
Im trying to determine what space ive got from the back of the collector to the transmission pan for running the y-pipe.
If someone could give me some pictures, or even idea's that would be amazing!
Thanks!
P.s- I did search. Nothing came up

Heres a couple of small pics from one of Hawks swaps. Your going to have to run something similar there is no way to run pipe between an auto and the inside of the frame/floor pan so you'll have to either notch it to clear and reinforce or go around like this

im not sure about a 700r4 or a 4l60, but with a th350/th400 you will have to cut the bellhousing to fit the headers.
i dont run 02's, but it looks like it could be a REALLY close fit with an automatic. id recommend installingthem as you drop the headers in.
fit and finish is really nice. they have great groudn clearance.
DO NOT buy their y pipe. fab one, or have a muffler shop build one for you.
