OE Exhaust diameter

[TOFIC]

Well, read every manual I have and not one tells me what diameter the OE exhaust is for the single pipe V-8 exhaust. Anyone know or can point me to the correct site for the information. Also does anyone have a source for the factory Y pipe for the v-8 exhaust.

Thanks Bill, know anyway I can get a stock Y pipe?
I would settle for a image of one and how they install.

I would consider stepping up to 2 1/8 or 2 1/4" pipe. You should see gains in power and mileage. Dont have a good source for you might try a junk yard and look for a early 70's ford van I'm almost positive they used the same exhaust manifolds if not the Y will be close

I can take a pic of an original y-pipe for you tomm. if you would like it. Its the original on my 73. HTH SB

How about posting the pics? I was thinking of doing the same thing.

 

[TOFIC]

How about I do a tech article if I can make this work with pictures??

Sounds good to me!

 

[Sasquatch]

Pics may not be up tonight, sorry. I forgot to get a new card reader on the way home as mine has crapped out. I'll try to call the wife and get her to stop by walmart though, it will be very late SB

 

[Sasquatch]

Heres a few pics, if more needed let me know. SB

 

[Carl]

Cool, thanks for the pics. Is that a stock muffler? Can an exhaust shop fab up a y pipe pretty easily?

 

[Sasquatch]

AFAIK, its a factory muffler and exhaust. When I bought this one a year ago, everything on it was still original except tires. They are the second set as told by original owner. SB

 

[TOFIC]

Many thanks for the pics, now I know what to look for.

Not sure if they changed from year to year. I have a bone stock 69 302 that I can take pictures of also. Let me know.

 

[Carl]

Sure, that would be great ztoolman44! Maybe between the two Broncos we can figure out what the pipes are supposed to look like.

 

[TOFIC]

Options are always welcome. How about a look at your setup??
Pics please.
