Hello CJ-ers,
I'm restoring an '83 CJ5 in which a PO installed a 304 engine. When I bought it, it was equipped w/headers. However, I am replacing the headers w/stock, exhaust manifolds.
The headers fed into a Y-pipe, which looks very similar to the stock, V8 Y-pipe for CJ5. I checked w/NAPA today and they have a listing for a Y-pipe for '76-79 CJ5, but no part # for 1980 or '81, V-8 equipped, CJ5.
Could anyone please tell me if the '76 - '79 Y-pipe will fit my 1983, 304, T176 -equipped, CJ5? My header Y-pipe is in decent shape, so if the stock, Y-pipe is unavailable, I may take both the Jeep and my header Y-pipe to a muffler shop to modify the pipe to connect to my stock, exhaust manifolds.
If it's available, I'd prefer to acquire a new, Y-pipe.
Thanks, Tim
