Default Flowmaster merge y pipe.

Ok guys I just got a 3-3.5" flowmaster merge so I'm gonna go from true duals back to a single system and want to build my own y pipe I was gonna buy a pacesetter y and add the merge but I can't decide if it'll be better vs fabbing one up with mandrel bends since the pacesetter y has the crush pipe.

Anyone have the part numbers of the bends they used and what bends they've used. I'm thinking of flanges of the headers vs slip fit unless slip fit is better. I have pacesetter longtubes btw.

Ive seen quite a few pics of ls y pipes but not really any on lt1s so if any has any pictures of one they've done please post up.

Those are good U's theyll work just fine. if you want you could get some 45's i went with the U's because i was able to use every part of them. If your talking about the little mufflers on the front. I put them there to fool people to being high flow cats. They slipped right over my header collectors.. lucky me lol I used 1" pypes band clamps to connect them together
