Transmission crossmember

[Scotty D]

Ok, 2 wheel drive small block, turbo 350 guys, I’m putting headers on my c10.
My’79 once had a y-pipe and a catalytic converter, the transmission crossmember interferes with the driver side header. Are you using an aftermarket crossmember? Not sure what to do about this.

here is the factory pre cat crossmember if your going under the crossmember with your exhaust.

Check out Dirty Dingo in Phoenix they have one and you can save shipping when you come to the valley. Sorry Scott it is Ben close to Phoenix.

My '84 C10 has the same crossmember that yours probably does. It used to be a small block with th350. It had a set of Hooker headers on it and they cleared the crossmember. When those rusted out, I installed a set of Flowtech headers that were actually for a 4x4 application and they didn't interfere with the crossmember either.

While totally not what you have....
This is the cross member under my big block 4 speed truck.

I did have the boy source a different cross member out of a truck at the junk yard a while ago and it looks like this one.

One day we will get around to putting it under the truck.
I told him to clean his room and I would buy a totally new exhaust for the truck he drives everyday.
We still have the ****** exhaust under the truck and it has been over a year now....

Mine looks pretty much like the top photo, and looks like I need to find one like the bottom photo

Every time he goes out there, I have had him looking under trucks to find this one.
It took a few months and a few trips to find it under a truck.
The one I found was under a small block 4 speed truck, so it should fit mine just fine.

Other wise the way to go is the Texas Speed one for around $130.
If Max didn't find the one he did, that was the route I was going to go just to get the pipes up under the truck.
We are going with a simple drop on our 3/4 ton to keep it functional.

A hunting I will go.....
