Default No collector on Pacesetter headers???

I just got my pacesetter headers, there are no collectors welded on. I was just wondering if this is normal, I thought they were a direct bolt on, I also orderd the ory, I have not received it yet, but I just thought they would both bolt up then attatch to the factory exhaust with no welding required. Have everyone elses come like this??

Default Yea they..

dont have collectors. The y pipe slips on and the bolts up to where your stock exhaust system is .. about right under the pass door. It comes with all the hardware.

i just got my LT's in a week ago and they have collectors. Call the people you bought them form and find out what the deal is because they should come with collectors.

yeah, what virgils4.8 said, kinda. No bolt on flanges. ORY slips onto the collector then use a clamp to secure it.

i recommend welding on some 3 bolt flanges to connect the header collector to the y. it's a major pita to take them off b/c of the clamps...
