Do yourself a favor and do the poly mounts now.

Do yourself a favor and do the poly mounts now.

lol, i know but I dont want to wait for them to come. I may just not do them period unless I have to at some point. What exactly is the benefit over stock mounts?

Oh yeah, just got home with the ORY. ready to get this started!

[sman]

Autozone and advance usually have them. I had to go to 1 of each.

The advantage is your y-pipe not banging the floorboard contsantly. As well as other possible squeeks, rattles, and thuds.

[Sic96]

Advanced huh?? well imma call them right now then. I figured it'd be a Summit or Jegs deal only.

[sman]

I dont think its listed under our cars, I think you have to find the part number for our cars then give it to the auto parts stores, they were in the aftermarket section when I bought mine.

[Sic96]

oh snap, they do have them. Are those energy suspension ones cool?!? for like 28.00 a piece

[sman]

Part number is

3.1151G

[Sic96]

Didnt show anything. the ones im looking at are 3.1116G. pry the same thing.

[Sic96]

so i found two at Autozone, 60.00 for the pair. There universal fit right? We didn't see a difference in any of them. I just bought two of the same kind.

Looks right to me! Yes no difference between left and right IIRC.

[Sic96]

man i cannot get that bolt/clamp off at the back of the old y pipe! It looks to be all welded together. it's right at about the middle of the driveshaft where the single pipe of the y connects to the rear setup. Anyone have this problem also?? Bout to just cut it off

[Sic96]

ok so everything is ready to bolt up, headers, exhaust, everything. And i JUST realized something I should have spotted a looong time ago! Check out the headers and the ORY. Please spare me the "dumbass" comments because I've already been hard enough on myself.

Will this even work now?? Can I just cut those flanges off and be good? Chime in Kammi if you read this, is that ORY useless with these?
Edit: those pacesetters are exactly 9 1/2" round and the ORY is 10" round, so seems like if i just cut the flanges off and smooth it all out, I'll be all set.

[c0ncEpT]

I would honestly get flanges welded to the ORY. Slip fit sucks. If you have money laying around V-bands would be even better.

[Sic96]

yeah but I dont have a welder and the muffler shop would pry want the headers bolted up so the flange weld could be exact. Can't really get the car there. I know slip-on is the worst, but if I clamp them down tight it should be fine. I could always get it all welded up later, just want to get it on the car for now.
