For my Y-pipe I brought an off the shelf Hooker from summit. It clears perfectly... about an inch off room. It was annoying to line up, so I had the muffler shop adjust it a little so it's easy to line up. I had them weld my Cut outs on each side of the Y- pipe and I cut the rear I pipe off and had the cat put in place there. It was a simple solution, but all I can say is that the kit works very well. I don't know who posted the rumor about the cat not working in the I pipe location, but it's false. The Cat gets extremely hot, I mean hot. It turned the SS gold plenty quick, and I for some reason decided to touch it....only to find out why I don't listen to rumors anymore. But that setup works very well. Good luck.

 

breslin locking header bolts (ones with allen head in middle) the stainless steel one are expensive but worth every penny , now i just have to install them

I just ordered the stage 8 lockers from summit 10 minutes ago.

 

get a good price on em? mine were extremely pricey, but stainless and they look pretty straight forward. they got here in like 2 days.

 

just got done pulling the y pipe off which was not a cake walk, gonna drop the starter and pull the manifolds in the morning. Any tips on which swivel/extension combo people have used would be great! thanks

 

Shoot them with PBNutblaster and let them sit... I recco getting them with a breaker bar first.

 

I paid 42.99 for the set of Stage 8 lockers. But I dont think they are stainless.

 

2 things first i took off that plastic boot on the steering column , does it need to be there when it runs? and when i jack the motor from the bottom should i have the car on stands then place some 2x4s under the oil pan and jack from there? thanks

 

thats the best way to do it

i just did my install this weekend,

for one i HIGHLY reccomend changing the motor mounts, i did not and im running into fitment issues everywhere, i shall change them this weekend

2nd i didnt even put teh plastic back onto the steering shaft or it would not rotate and u may have to been teh metal tabs on the linkage

third , does ur y-pipe have the indentation on it to clear teh crossmember , if not id reccomend calling jet hot lol , mine did not i have a buddy taking care of it

 

what kind of mounts are you going 2 put in?

alright so i think it has a bend , its flattened on the driverside heres some pics

also when you put your Y pipe together did it line right up with your I-pipe ? like in the dead center of the car? it looks like mine may be a little longer after its put together. thanks for the help


Also when jacking the motor where should i put my blocks? under the oil pan? and can i leave the dr. side header on when i jack it? thanks

 

i ordered the energy suspension mounts today should be here saturday

CamaroSS30thAnn do i have the right piece (in post above)

 

thanks for the pics man , yeah u have teh right one

jet hot sent me two passenger side pipes so my buddy had to call them since i orederd through him , now i justneed to wait and c what he says

i believe i got enegry suspension poly mounts,

He had installed jethots b4 and teh y-pipe may be a bit long

im doing the install by myslef with a friend to save money lol , i though i could save a few bucks by not getting teh mounts , looks like i was wrong

if u need to know anything about the jethots or the install let me knwo




is that ur Z in the backround?
looks good let me know how the install goes , it really was not as bad as i thought it would be , will i do it again ......................maybe
