I did a custom one on my truck, cut up another Y pipe to make it work, should be the same as yours even though you have a CC. However I did do my crossover pipe behind the trans member..

If I remember right you're in Austin. I have an extended cab, but there is a place in Dripping Springs called L&L muffler. They did a great job on my ypipe. I had them weld some flanges on my existing ypipe and tuck it up above the frame.

I love it. It makes changing torque converters or dropping the transmission a walk in the park. I just have a simple 3 bolt triangular flange with a gasket. No leaks and they're at least 1/2 and inch thick so no warping.
