Y-pipe banging
Y-pipe banging I got hooker longtubes and hooker ORY... it came with those clamps... so its clamped on around 2k-3k... it bangs against something... LOUD... if I weld them instead of clamps will that help?
I had some exhaust banging under my car(Y pipe hitting driveshaft safety loop).. Simple fix for me was wrapping those areas with header wrap and a couple clamps.. Took care of all my banging sounds..
Does anyone know the size of the Hooker Y pipe? 2.5 or 3.0? I think I am gonna try the bumpstop from Thunderracing.com first? will I be able to put that on by jackin up the car myself? also do I need 1 or 2???
^^^ Same here. I had that problem with my Pacesetter Y-pipe so I just put some high-temp heater hose in between the pipe and the floorboard. You can feel it in the shifter, but at least it doesn't bang. And it's only a temporary fix until I replace the factory engine mounts with something more solid...

They're not as "flimsy" as the stock rubber ones, so they hold the engine in place better. That's all. You reuse the stock metal clamshell that goes around the mount. Drill out the rivets in the shell, pop out the rubber stockers, put in the poly's, bolt it back together. Mine work great.
I did them one at a time. I did the drivers side first and it worked real well for a couple of weeks, then it started banging again under hard acceleration. After I put the other one on the problem was totally fixed. They are NOT fun to install, but there are worse things you could be doing.
