Default Kooks headers w/ TSP Y

Got a little question guys, wondering if Kooks 1 3/4" x 3" long tubes will fit my 3" Texas Speed ORY. Car is a 2000 camaro ss, the y pipe is designed for pacesetters and hookers. Need to know how much modifying would need to be done to make this work if at all possible, thanks guys.

you might want to take a look at this poll https://ls1tech.com/forums/generatio...come-vote.html The TSP y-pipe is the only TSP product I would recommend not buying. Hell you want to use it on a set of headers it wasn't "designed" for, and it doesn't even fit over 50% of the headers it was "designed" for. Do yourself a huge favor and buy the kooks y-pipe, you already spent the money on top of the line headers you might as well get the top of the line y-pipe that fits them. If you don't want to buy the kooks y-pipe then get your self a flowmaster merge and have an exhaust shop fab you up a custom y-pipe.

How is it that Kooks' Y is "top of the line", with that crappy "merge"?!

I have now ruled-out their Y-pipe, as I expect a better merge from "top of the line".
