Keep in mind I'm completely new at this.

I have a 1969 Mustang coupe Grande with the 302. Just purchased some JBA tri y headers and also a complete 2.25" dual exhaust kit from CJ Pony parts with the h pipe that it says is designed for tri y headers.

Here's the dilemma. The H pipe has no flange to connect to the header. The ID of the header tubing is 2.25" with a 3 bolt connecting flange. My problem is that the h pip has no connecting flange. I've looked on summit and cj for some type of connector but cannot find a 2.25" collector to connect the header to the h pipe.

I've called the company I got the headers from but they sent me 3" reducer collectors and they don't mate up to the header flange.

Is there a flanged connector 2.25" connector pipe out there to mate the headers to the h pipe?

Thanks in advance.

In theory, flanges of this sort made for 2.25" pipe would fit....but my advice, since you have to weld on a flange anyway is to buy a set(2) of V-Band Flange kits instead:


V-bands don't leak as much as the standard flanges....cut the standard flanges off the header and weld on the v-bands...its what I did for the headers I built:
