SON OF A B****!!!!!!

The system I bought, which is designed for a 78-87 Monte Carlo SS with the Double Hump Crossmember and headers DOESNT FIT!!!!! Its not even close. So now its being flat bedded to an exhaust shop to "make" it fit.

ok, exhaust done, every pipe had to be bent to make it fit.

They are working on the steering column now, its a bit wobbly. Picking it up this afternoon.

Jim, cut outs are yours if you still want them. Do you want the Y pipe too? of are you going to get new ones? I will have to sawzall them off and will need work to make them work. You'll need a new harness, Summit sells them for around $20

glad to hear it's done Scott.
i'd love to add the cutout, but don't have the funds for them right now.
maybe you could send me pics of what or how they mount to see what i would have to do. i wouldn't need the y-pipe

Just saw the car, went to pay them and pick up the old parts. Looks good. I liked my old tips more, but these will do for now. I should have it home tonight.

Now to start racking up the miles!!!!!

Well, they are yours if you want them, I dont want anything for them. Im going to cut the Y pipes off the rest of the system so I can toss the pipes in the recycle bin.

Was going to take it tonight to a cruise night, but realized my headlights were like fish tanks, so got some new ones that I'll put in tomorrow.
