Exclamation SLP Headder install problems

Ok I bought the SLP off road LT headders with Y pipe. part #30049
I got the headders in fine and all but as I was trying to get the Y pipe put on and somethings way out of wack.
If I put one side of the Y pipe on the headder collector it's off by about 6" form the other side.
I need help with this do any of you have these headders or have heard of this problem and how to fix it????

I ordered the same headers a few weeks ago (#30049) and SLP forgot to include the cat inserts...... Only reason why I bought them was for the christmas special they were having..

yeah, we just had the same prob on a friends car. the reason its offset is because its setup to have cats or cat inserts in between the headers and y. we just took his to the local muff shop and they fabbed it up to work. sorry you had that prob. thats one of the many reasons everyoney downs slp.

hope you get it workin

Yeah that's a tough header to deal with. The local shops around here charge $50-$75 more when installing SLP's because of the hassles of them. Good luck on the install.
