Bring it to a driveline place. It'll cost you around $300 to have it done. They should be able to cut everything to length and either use a conversion u joint or weld the e30 u joint stuff to the mustang side and balance everything.

Yeah, I have a great drive line shop down the street from me. I had them shorten a Jeep driveshaft for me a while back. charged $100 bucks. You still used a one piece mustang DS though correct?

great idea lol, big ass diesel stacks

Does this runner have to be re-routed? If so, where? Doesn't seem logical due to the location of the other runners.

I would think, thats really close the the firewall. I wonder if you could get creative and switch the routing for the #4 you're pointing at with the #2. that way it would go forward then down. I don;t know how handy you are with a welder, it would take a little work.

Even if you have a shop reroute it, it would be cheaper then wrapping it around. The front. Im $600 into mine and no muffler and i only get to the axel.

[IronFreak]

Send it to Omaha........I'll do it for cheaper then that. If I have my motor ready to go I'll even test fit it for you! ;)

[eurotrash]

Ya it was a pain to get everything to fit. I snaked 3" madrel between the mount and subframe, around the starter, and down between the frame starter and rear subeframe mount (maybe it was the control arm mount, eitherway). With all 2.5 and 3" mandrel/ovalized im like $250-$300 in just materials.

[IronFreak]

.......wow, not looking forward to that part hahaha.

So you're saying get long tubes and reroute the back runner? Then where to meet it with the passenger side

Yea I may have to take ya up on that lol

Run it back under the tranny behind the bell housing or tucked just in front of the bell housing and into a collector on the pass side or just hpipe um there and run a dual back.

^^^Let it be noted that the drivers side header was custom fabricated from a stock header to get the angle he needed to accomplish this.

[ballski]

Yes I saw that. I really wish i could weld! Probably should get one and start practicing.

Love this exhaust and am def running a H or X pipe

[IronFreak]

I wish I was to the point on my project where you are, I could mess around with the headers. I've been welding for years, its what I did professionally before I took an office job. Have a tig and mig in my garage!! We'll see what I come up with. I kinda planned going turbo right off that bat to save me from re-fabricating my exhaust later down the road.

[ballski]

Make some and I'll buy em off ya ;)
