Barb,
We have an independent guy that works at the local tire store, and he does custom pipes for a wide range of vehicles, OEM size up to the big stuff on diesels, SS and "regular" pipe. You'll probably have more luck if you look for local shops and then drive around and talk to the guys about what you need vs calling them on the phone.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

Yep probably not a shelf item.. A good muffler shop should ba able to make you a set
If not they should be able to cut the chevy end off and put a cady end on the Chevy pipe.Last edited by cffisher; 01-09-2012 at 12:37 PM.

It sounded to me like she is trying to go from a stock caddy exhaust manifold to a header flange.
Is that right Barb???

Some chevy's have stock 2 bolt flanges others 3. With out the tools your better off to take it some where. A smoke wrench and bender can work wondersCharlie

she had a chevy 350 and now has the 472 caddy .. she still has the chevy flange on her pipes .. like cffisher said any good muffler shop can cut off her old flanges and make a new couple feet of adapter pipe to fit the caddy manifoldsiv`e used up all my sick days at work .. can i call in dead ?

thanks guys. yes charlie and hoss are right. i am trying to go from stock caddy to stock chevy. my local shop can do it but if i can find some one that makes the pipes i thought it would be cheaper for me to install. vara i have to mate a stock caddy header to stock chevy exhaust. i believe that it is 3"BARB

Barb chances of someone having a pipe alreay made up would be slim... since one or the other would have to be shortened or lengthtend?? I believe your best bet is a shop.Charlie

Kewl Barb,your back getting more of the pcs of the swap together.Ya know as popular as these Chaddy swaps once where,you would think someone would have made the parts for this.But like the guys said,sure is a good thing to make a contact with a guy who would do exhaust mods for you.
A "skip" = a dumpster.... but he says it's proper english??? Oh.. Okay. Most of us can see the dating site pun, "matching" with an arsonist.. But a "SKIP? How is that a box? It must all be...
