SLP headers would work with your y-pipe... but those are too expensive lol.

Hmm... hooker or pacesetter. Will the y-pipe just slip on? Don't think so, more than likely you'd have do adjustments to the y-pipe. Any shop/muffler shop will make it fit

Your kind of screwed lol I'm pretty sure SLP headers are the only ones that will bolt right on to an SLP y pipe.
For about 400 which isn't too much more then what you have, you can get pacesetter longtubes and a ypipe...

Wait... you have an SLP y-pipe, on the stock manifolds? If that is the case, no LT will work with the stock y-pipe.... At least none that I know of. Tho I am not sure but I just cant picture how one would fit a stock y pipe with long tubes...

If its a 3 inch Y pipe... Yes, the headers will fit the Y-pipe.... AFTER you've adjusted your Y-pipe to fit with ease onto your header's collectors

I would just forget the slp ypipe and go with what desertLS1 said, Pacesetter LTs and a pacesetter y-pipe. I have pacesetter LTs and several other people I know have them as well...they're great for how cheap they are.

yes, you shouldve just bought a complete set. sell that ypipe and put it towards LTs and a matching ypipe.
