Geez, what a weekend…<\/p>\n

I took a few days to visit Bone and Nossy to try and work on the Bone. It was a busy weekend. We did get to weld on my exhaust some. Here is a progress report of the past few days.<\/p>\n

From the collection of parts I got from my memphis visit Laura gave me her stock filter box. I also found a 3.4 connecting tube that is almost an exact fit for a 90 elbow.<\/p>\n

It came in the day before I left for GA. It looks pretty good to me. I like the fit and the ease of access too.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The 3.4 tube had to be trimmed about an 1in to connect to the elbow.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

When I got to the Bone Manor\/D’casa Nossy. When wrenched hard on the bone for 2 days. Then decided it was time to vent with some good ole gunpowder and lead.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The bone took a lot more time than we thought mainly because I’m getting old and slow.<\/p>\n

But we went ahead and chopped up my exhaust to weld in a MagnaFlow Y-pipe. just to see if all this talk about the flow of the y-pipe causes most of our rasp.<\/p>\n

I got it up off the ground, looked at what we needed, and ran to the parts store<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Jim was adamant that this wasn’t to big or too ricey. I failed to see his point.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Point of no return, chopping the pacesetter y-pipe.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Jim began welding up the pieces<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This was also something we were going to change. This here makes way to much noise inside the car.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We got the Y-pipe and cat welded as well as the after muffler pipe.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We also cut and welded a flange to bolt the new y-pipe in instead of welding it to the stock cat back pipe. Here are some gratuitous action shots with the cutting wheel.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We got the rear pipe installed. This makes it so much quieter in the car. I can actually hear the sound of the exhaust vs the drone of the sound hitting the ground.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We got the y-pipe installed at about 10pm on sunday. I had to be back home for work the next day. :-\\ It was a long ride home.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Last night however I got a chance to work on sealing the headers because we had to ditch the factory donuts.<\/p>\n

I got a couple 2 bolt flange gaskets to stick between the ball and flange. it seems to seal them up pretty good.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I’m back in the camaro today. The exhaust sounds completely different and the underside looks pretty good. I’ll have to get some new exhaust video very soon.<\/p>\n
