Y Pipe A Banging Installed Kook's headers and catted y-pipe and can't stop the y-pipe from banging. I have tryed bending the y-pipe down. It helped. I bought the mufflex part didn't work. jammed a peice of wood in there it fell out. I read about a peice of raditor hose but the car is too nice for that. Any help?

If you dont want to go the rubber hose route you can put in poly motor mounts. This will keep it from twisting and stop the banging. I went a simple route and just screwed a piece of rubber to the floorboard. Has worked great for almost a year.

And I wouldnt trade my 5.0 shifter for any other. I had the stock hurst and a B&M. Just my .02

I am saying that is what I used to cure my Y pipe bang. And anyone with a custom true duals like Lane's will tell you that they have no banging issues. But ya I see your point you pay alot of cash for what you have and still have the same issues. 
Thats why I bought the pacesetters and didnt worry about it because the y pipe banging has been around so long everyone knows about it and every person has there own way to fix it. I didnt like the B&M because it was sloppy and not notchy. Some people dont like the notchy, I for one do
