Here's what a local custom exhaust shot did for us...
I hope our new mandrel one flows a little better.
What do you guys think?

Oh yeah, those are actual production Y pipe pics... the kits will have them, mandrel bent, with the full-flowing Y connection. I'll get some pics tomorrow of the bracketry included, and what kind of ground clearance you guys can expect. 
Sound good?

Looks to be set up to follow the stock Y-pipe location under the oil pan/behind the K member, then turns to run under the K member.. definitely not above.
NICE lookin' piece. Now get yer butt down the 1/4 so we know what it can do! I wanna see The Raven's record broken!

Techsmurf's correct... follows the stock Y pipes location, then dips under the K member - can't go above, because the 3" downpipe is routed right there.

well the original (ack) exhaust was not a good example.. we had a pretty good mock of of mandrel exhaust.. albeit badly routed and really low to the ground, but when we went to get it welded, the cut all the mandrels out and made that piece of crap. the y-pipe portion was $40 but just found out, that they didnt make it like they said, they bought it at a local distributor which we coulda got for $10. A exhaust shop (most) do not have mandrel benders... we made that y-pipe at a very low cost, and if we marketed it, could be cheaper than crimp bent exhaust.
we actually had an exhaust shop say we shoulda let them make it... and that mandrel bends were over-hyped.. wow.

Yea, Nixon, no lie...
I appreciate the positive responses. I take it then, that you guys will like the quality of the kits we produce.
For now, I've got a torque arm fiasco going on, that involves my dearly beloved fiance going to Orlando to help this project out!!
Yeah, 3 hours of driving, and left @ 10pm? She's a keeper.
