How did your exhaust turn out? Was the hole I milled out enough? I never double checked it to mine since it was in the car and I wanted to make sure you got it in time. Hope it went well!!
 
I had a similar problem. The header collector was directed at my trans crossmember. (drivers side) I removed the crossmember, cut that section of the member out and welded in a piece of 6" diameter pipe that I cut in half. I tig welded the pipe to the crossmember sections (where I removed the previous portion) and had it powdercoated. It works beautifully. I can post photos if someone explained how to. This may sound crazy but it looks good and works very well. :shrug:
 
over in the forums section of the .net site they have a second classified section listed as parts-buy-sell . the ad is not in the main classifieds.

guy is selling 2 of the double hump cross-members. a little more than i would pay but no where near as bad as the one listed earlier in the thread. the ad is just listed as "misc parts hard to find "

good luck
 
I just bought a red King this past weekend and the previous owner gave me 2 of those cross members, both from a V6 car and one had the hole hogged out already. They were both blasted and repainted black, PM me if your interested in one, or I can bring it to carlisle this weekend for the ford show.
