The TSP Y-pipe had problems in 2 places... 1) the crossover had about 1/16th of an inch from hitting the 6L80e pan on the bottom and driver side.... and i didnt like that. 2) i had to notch the crossmember on the passenger side where the actual Y merges together and goes over the crossmember. It literally just sit on top of it with no clearance until i cut a bit corner out of it. This was last year or so... so not sure if they may have changed things since then.

I FOR THE LIFE OF ME and cant understand why all these companies can make headers to fit perfectly and yet they cant build a Y-PIPE????
IS this on an AWD Denali install. I am about to order headers and y and have heard some couldn't get the y to fit awd.

Thanks

Is it a 4l60/4l80? If it is a 6l80 it will hit. If it is a 4l60/80 it will clear. In that case I have mine for sale for 125 that was on the truck for about 10 miles. Pm me if interested
