Default Speed engineering headers and Y pipe

Does anybody have any experience with these headers, specifically the Y pipe on a 6l80 truck wondering if there are fitment issues.


Also does the Texas speed Y pipe fit the 6l80?


Thanks in Advance

No experiences with the Speed Engineering Headers, but the TSP Y-pipe will fit the 6L80E but its not nice... its EXTREMELY tight fit and takes some muscle. The quality wasn't good and it leaked everywhere with clamps. Once i installed it i took it to a muffler shop and he did some massaging and welding and it worked fine afterwards. 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????
