Thanks for the quick response! So I will need a Y-Pipe to hook up to the stock exhaust or is it just highly recommended? Leaving the back half stock until I can afford the Borla...

You will need a y-pipe, the flanges on the headers won't match up too the stock y-pipe but you'll be fine with leaving anything after that.

Does anyone have any suggestions for getting out the last bolt back on the passenger side manifold?

[blackcar]

From underneath. I used my 13 year old step son that has 6 foot long arms the size of a pencil.

Take off your coil packs and valve cover and it should open it back there

Anyone have info on sidepipe headers for a C3 Corvette?

[Too Fast]

[jodmari]

[tatertot91]

Haven't had mine in for years. Wouldn't imagine that to be much support anyways.

[jodmari]

Is anyone running LT's with an ORY and just straight piped after that? I'm planning on buying 1-7/8" TSP LT's with a TSP ORY and wasn't sure if I wanted to run no mufflers or buy mufflers. My T/A currently has no mufflers but I have heard that buying ONE Loudmouth bullet muffler sounds good if it is welded right after the y-pipe. Anyone have a setup like this? Or does anyone run the straight pipe setup? Not 100% on what I want to do yet. Any feedback would be awesome.
