Default Did I make an oops? Pacesetter ORY /w a 6sp?

I've been waiting on my cam and LT order to arrive and I was doing a search looking to find what band clamps everyone is using on theirs and I came across a thread where someone mentioned it didnt fit his 6sp so hes selling it.

did I not do my research properly and order something that wont work?
I ordered the Pacesetter Coated LT's /w 3" ORY

if i'm good to go, what are the band clamps everyone used? and I need 3 of them?

thanks

Wait is your truck 4wd? Because if so the pacesetter y pipe won't work. I have these headers on my truck right now for the break in process and I had to get a custom y bent at the exhaust shop because of the driveshaft coming from the t case to the front dif. If yours is 2wd then you shouldn't have any problems. Check out stainless works there a site supporter and make great product they can get you some nice clamps.

Dont use band clamps....they wont last.

Do a ball and flange setup, vbands, or 3 bolt flanges with a copper gasket
