I have a BBK O/R H pipe already on my car. However, it is not the short pipe that is suppose to be used with L/Ts. My question is, how hard would it be for me to put on some BBK L/Ts and keep this H pipe. Would I be able to cut the pipe down? And if so how would i do it. Thanks.

Click to expand...

sell it for 100 bucks in the classifieds , and buy the offroad to match the headers , for 139 bucks , 39 dollars is worth it trust me ....

the labor cost that you're going to pay would be almost the same amount as the new o/r H pipe I would assume.. so go with a new one

Ok, and I just noticed the BBK LTs only fit 5 speeds, and I have an automatic. So which LT's and mid pipe should i go with?

I think Hooker LT headers are designed to avoid the transmission so access to it is easy. BBKs LTs cover the transmission requiring you to remove the headers in order to get to the transmission. Check out Hooker, they might work on your auto.

BBK will work with the automatic , you have to do some modifications on the flanges , cut them and rotate them to an up and down position so the flanges clear everything ... I would go hookers on an automatic though ...
