pace setter header question

i bought the summitt 3 inch x pipe and the pacesetter headers for my lt1 and i was told the x would slip fit on the headers and the pipe is the exact same size for the x and the headers.....any alternative way to hook them up?????:confused:

I'm sure any muffler shop could fab something up for you take it somewhere and see what they say

Take it to a muffler shop and have them expand the x pipe where it slips over the header. Tell them you need a 3" inside diameter.

I think I might have helped that thought out I remember something in a thread like that. You could by a 3" to 3" connector from autozone or oreilly probably.

You can rent a exhaust pipe expander at autozone as well. I ****** rigged mine once for a few days. Made a cut long ways down a piece of pipe the same size, maybe six inches in length and used it to connect them..Then jb welded the slit shut where there was a whole, and clamped it on both sides. I ended up selling the x pipe on here and running a y pipe and hooker catback.
I enjoy the sound of true duals on the vette today.. Dont even have to worry about going over the axle either... :p
