i have a 98 camaro ls1. I just ordered my midtubes through Pacesetter... I wanted to go long tubes .. but the car is lowered ...so due to clerance i can't put long tubes... anywayz... Do i need to buy a Y-pipe w/ these midtube headers? or can i bolt on directly? Last question is if i buy a aftermarket Y-pipe will it give me more power? any suggest it would help thanks

 

my car is lowered quite a bit and i have LT's. no problem.

anyways, if the site u ordered from doesnt list a corresponding ypipe then chances are they are the same flange to flange dimensions as your manifolds. do u have a link to the part u ordered?

 

yeah heres the website throught jeggs... part number 70-1348

thanks

 

with the painted you may have to replace them after a couple years. they will rust out pretty quickly. i couldnt see anything about needing a midpipe, but i would recommend it anyways. you are choking the headers if you keep the stock ypipe on there. a 2.5" high flow or 3" would be way better.

 

really.. only for a couple of years?? i cant buy like high heat paint to help it last longer? i did get these cuz they were unexpensive.. its true u get what u pay for lol.. but i cant afford ceramics at the moment haha

 

Any type of paint will burn off and they will rust from the inside also.
