Default FS Front exhaust section for S&S Headers/SC400

Look at the last picture, from the arrows forward is what you get.
$200

Here is what I paid
$90 each Magna flow cats
$90
$50 each Flex couples
$50
$80 7 premade stainless mandrel bends Cut from 2 summit "U's"
$50 5 O2 bungs
$30 stailess tube
$100 custom Water jet cut flanges, made from 5/8" stainless
$50 custom watrejet cut 3/16" copper gaskets
----------
$590 in parts alone, labor is another $150

I could sell it farther back but it will add due to I will have to have it re-made. If someone is going S&S headers this is the only way to go. Fleax couplers are a must! They eliminate the headers from getting all the vibration. This takes all the work out of the install. Just hook your tail pipe section to it and go. Keeps all the 02's for a obd2 car as well.

Headers are sold. Selling my S&S headers for a SC400. They are the coated ones! I mays still have the box I will look in the shop attic.
FYI, one header tube has a small bung welded in it for a pyrometer sensor. Easy to plug this with a pipe plug if you are not uning it.

Asking $450 shipped in the lower 48 states.
BTW, They are not off the car yet but will be very soon.

If you want more exhaust I could be talked into selling you the front section. It has stainless waterjet cut plates, Stainless flex joints and Magnaflow cats. also has the bungs in them for O2 sensors and Wideband sensors. Here are some pics of the fron section. I would cut it off at the X-pipe (I am keeping the X-pipe to hook new exhaust to unless your wallet can talk me out of it).

Scott!!! If you are selling the piece that comes into an X after the headers, I will buy that right now!

There are 0 exhaust shops in Yuma that are worth a damn... let me know!

Really wasnt intending to sell the front portion complete or without the headers. Actualy was going to cut it somewhere in front of the X pipe if someone wanted a simple hookup for headers. You wouldnt belive what I have invested in that thing.
2-custom waterjet cut 1/4" thick copper gaskets that fit the headers.
2-custom Waterjet cut 5/8" thick stainless flanges
2-stainless Flex couplings
2-stainless magnaflow high flow cats
5-02 sensor bungs (2 for stock, two for AEM widebands, one for dyno sensor)
8-10 feet of 2.5 stainless tube
several Mandrel bent sections
a bunch of labor
That just gets us to the front of the X-pipe! high dollar! I would work a deal with someone buying the headers.

I think the 2nd batch were made with thicker pipings. I may need to contact jbrady. I've been posting a lot about the S&S lately because I think it will be my next mod.

EDIT: Thicker piping as in wall thickness, not the pipe diameter.

Well I am not sure about the pipe thickness but these only have about 8000 miles on them so they are great shape. If you are hunting for a deal throw a offer on the table. I might pick it up.

I just spoke with jbrady. He says he wont be able to tell without looking at a picture of the headers. He said if you bought the headers from S&S, they can tell you which batch you have.

Headers are sold pending me confirming the 2.5" collector which should be shortly. I am reasonably sure these are later models. As soon as the payment goes thru On these I will post the front section of the exhuast to make a S&S install a breeze. My front section is done right, All stainless, O2 bungs, high flow cats for those with emissions and Flex couplers to assure fit and function. Nice!!!!!!!!

FYI,
I wrote S&S about the collector size and the batch of headers that cracked. Here is the response

"The outlet has the stock Cat. flange on it so it will bolt directly to the Cat. The opening is 2 1/2"

There were only about 20 sets built in the first batch a over couple of years ago.If you had one of those you would have had them replaced by now."
