Default exhaust y bolt straight up ?

Nice swap. I have a 95 2wd Tahoe with a 07 5.3 going in it and was wondering if the y pipe bolts up ?

If the frame on the tahoe is the same as my truck it will not bolt up. The control arm mounts are in the way. We made mine out of the stock 5.3 y pipe but had to cut and reweld a good bit. I'll see if i can get some pics up later.
