Default Ypipe question

Would a Ypipe from an LS1 Camaro work on an LT1 Camaro? A guy has a Ypipe for sale locally off a 2000 Z28, and if it'd work on an LT1, with little to no modification done to the Ypipe, I want to buy it.

Is this a stock LS1 ypipe? If it is, it will not fit on an LT1.

I'm not sure if it's the stock Ypipe or not, he didn't specify. Here's the thread it's in. It's in the 2nd post. https://ls1tech.com/forums/lsx-parts-sale/839289-hsw-kit-rims-ypipe-ram-flywheel-etc.html

OK, I saw the ypipe on that thread. It's a ypipe for a Pacesetter headers for an LS1. You can probably have those fabricated to fit a Pacesetter LT1 headers. But, the way it looks, the pipes have been flatten somehow to clear something, maybe the transmounting bracket?.

The Z28 that I'm going to buy has Edelbrock headers on it though. Would I maybe be able to get the Ypipe to work with those?

If I'm not mistaken, I think Edelbrock only made shorty headers for the LT1's, so those ypipe will not work. They're more for long tube oriented.
You can always have a ypipe fabricated from an exhaust shop to fit any headers.

Alright, well, I think I'm just going to pass on that Ypipe for now then. I was hoping that it'd just mount right up fairly easily.
