ok me and my friend tried to tackle the job of installing my cutout and we basically got the piece of exhause off and tomarrow we are going to finish the install. my question is, i bought a 3 in summit cutout, will that just slide right over my stock exhaust? i plan on just clamping it for now and getting it welded in a week or so when i have time. will the clamps be fine for a week before i get it welded?

thanks

 

maybe. but if your running a catback with the 2.75 od end that connect to the y-pipe a 3'' cutout will be too big. we ran into that problem on my buddies WS6

 

well we are putting it in the I pipe right before it goes over the axle where everyone told use to put it. they told us to get a 3 in cutout. how big is the stock exhaust?

 

are you cutting the pipe. We stuck it in between the I pipe and the ypipe on my buddies

 

yea we are cutting the pipe. i believe it is the I pipe? im not a ls1 guy. i know mustangs. its right before it goes over the rear axle right after the y pipe i believe. whre is the I pipe?

anyways, will my summit 3 in cutout fit over m stock exhaust?

 

nvm i dont think its the i pipe. its the single pipe right after the y before it goes over the rear axle. where everyone puts them.

 

that's the I pipe

If the exhaust he has there is 3" OD and your cutout is 3" ID then it should slip fit fine.. otherwise you're gonna need to weld it up there.

 

what is the stock size on the i pipe?

 

2.75"

youre gonna have to weld

 

yep gotta weld

 

If your gonna weld anyway, just cut off the catback. I never capped my cutout with the stock exhaust. sounded too good
