Exhausting question, clock is ticking for me I have a car show friday to get to and the 55 chevy is at the
exhaust shop and they can't seem to find a flange to fit
the stock LS1 2002 Camaro exhaust manifolds down to an existing
system. About 12" of pipe but the flange doesn't match up to anything.
I would imagine that the Cat flange is what we are looing for?
I do not plan on running cats, and the computer has them
removed but am wondering
if there is a down tube or by pass tube available from someone
so I could get the right fitting flange??? HELP what to do
what to tell them.

I ran into the same issue on mine...never found any solution. I ended up cutting the flange of the exit pipe...that went to the cats...and they welded a new pipe to it. It was really a PITA but its the only way I could make it work. And then I also had to go to GM and buy the 2 gaskets...cause they couldnt find any of those either.

i made a template on 1/4 stell plate, cut it out and transfered holes with a 2.5 hole in middle for pipe.went to grainger supply and bought a 12"x12" sheet of copper sheet for like 20 bux and made gasket.
