Just wondering about the y-pipes. I bought the tester pipe back in early to mid april. Here we are 4 days shy of June. Any progress, a little bit of an update would be nice. Let me know something, thanks
I drive a Ford, what else do you need to know??

Yes there is progress. The welder who is doing the work has been busy on the weekends. He is doing this on his own time when he has the time. He was able to remove the restrictive areas and needs to add some material in the new "Y" I have asked him if he could stay after work to finish up next week. He also spent quite a bit of time removing the heat shield so it can be used when the Y pipe is complete. I mentioned before that this may take some time, I want to make sure its done right. I made copies of Warmongers pictures to use as a guide, if you guys are aware of any other pics that would probably help. The first one will take the longest, hopefully he'll be able to get the others done quicker, but also remember he is doing this on his time.

Thx for the update, was just curious. Glad to see it is progressing. Thanks to you and your buddy that's working on his own time.

Now all we need is a 2bolt flange. Or we could take the first one that he does with the 3bolt flange and sell it. As long as he has a jigg to do the rest.

Right, I was thinking about putting the first one on my slushbox SE since it will bolt right up. I wont do anything until you guys see it, and get your input. We MAY be able to fab a two bolt flange, or modify the three bolt flange. I'll press the welder to finsh this week. If it is ready lets have a meet so you (all) can look it over before we do the rest.
Thoughts?
FYI the flange does not have to be removed for this mod.
We could meet at at my shop, let me know.
