Hi Denny, thanks for the e-mail. Has your engine been moved from the stock location? This header has 2 tubes on the passenger side and one on the drivers side that go around the frame. Sorry I don't have any centerline dimension to give you, but our motor was in the stock location when we designed the header and yours would have to be also for proper fit. Is your floor board and frame stock by the transmission area? It sounds like you could use a 2 1/4" stepped to 2 3/8" with a 4" or 4 1/2" collector. Will you be running mufflers? We charge $850 for any tube size, stepped or not. Our turn around time is 4 weeks.
Thanks again, Dan Lemons.
