Pacesetter Question
Ok I just got a used set of Pacesetter ceramic coated headers with the offroad y in from UPS today. I was just messing with them I was noticing how hard it was to make the headers slip fit onto the y pipe. Any advice as to how I should go about expanding the y pipe opening so I can easily slide the header in. Right now its a supertight fit since they were most likely clamped down and just force apart when the guy removed them. How can I open up a little bit?

Take it to a local exhaust shop. They can use their hydraulic pipe expander to open it up a small amount. I had an exhaust shop do something like that for me and they didn't charge. I slipped the guy $5 or $10 anyway.

hey, i just put Pacesetters on my car with the TSP catted-Y and when i mocked it up, one side didnt fit over the header, just take it to any local muffler shop and ask if they can just open it up a tad!! took the guy like .2 seconds to do it! Make sure u bring the header and the pipe so he can see how much he needs to open it up. good luck.
