Will mid pipes such as xpipes/hpipes that are not specified as being able to fit on a v6 be able to? Without being bent etc?

 

[Ninjawafers!]

they should be able to. the MAC Prochamber mid pipe is for the GT's but has been put on several sixxers.

 

[boblongtv]

I believe it had to be fabricated though?

 

[Ninjawafers!]

i dunno... SSStang had one on his, and when i redo my exhaust ill be putting one on mine. its always easier and cheaper to get a shop to fab you up and exhaust though. our cars dont need mid pipes and will be fine with running divorced duals. some actually prefer it.

 

[boblongtv]

I realise this because our cars fire evenly. But it still seems to effect the sound/tone our exhaust makes. Is prochamber the way to go?

 

[Ninjawafers!]

i personally like the sound of a prochamber mid pipe, and its not done often... most common you will find are either divorced duals or h-pipe. the h will put a lil deeper tone. x-pipe is a no no... it will add a raspyness to your exhaust.

I cant find an h pipe for shorty headers specifically for a 6.

 

[boblongtv]

Im kinda trying to do it myself.....

 

[Ninjawafers!]

long tubes... problem solved

 

[boblongtv]

So you can use any mid pipe designed for longtubes regardless if they say v6 or v8 next to them?

 

[goren813]

Mostly. As said, if you get a shop to fab it up, they should be able to make it work. If you get long tubes, get a shorty mid pipe and your choice of mufflers, i prefer flow 40's, I'll let Vengance tell you otherwise... bring all that to a shop and they will weld it up and should be able to provide the piping and tips.

you need to use one for the V6.
Anything else will need some modification.

Thanks thats all I needed to know.

So if I get mac longtube headers will a mac short prochamber fit without any fabrication?

:yes.....

 

[ewells2420]

:yes.....

You dont know that for sure. Unless you have that same exact setup. I just had my LTs put in and used a BBK catted shorty H pipe and it had to be hand bent a little bit to get it to align with the headers.

 

[Ninjawafers!]

you can bend exhaust pipes by hand though... so if a lil bending is all you gotta do its no biggie

 

[boblongtv]

I agree. Thanks

With what Headers? BBK I'm pretty sure does not make LT's for our cars, so you missed matched brands, which is why it didn't line up.

I understand that I mis-matched brands. However is the mac prochamber made for V6s or V8s? From what I can tell its supposed to be made for both. people mis-match exhaust parts all the time, most are made pretty close to each other and usually do need a little tweeking to fit.

And yes I meant hand bent, mine was hand bent to fit. Maybe like 1/2" or so. I have the MAC Long tubes btw.
