Exhaust Elbows

Post by stevefusco »

Ok so I repower and new transmissions. start her up and my exhaust elbows are leaking everywhere. I found the 90 degree (steel) elbows for the 4 inch hoses but am having a hard time locating the Y connection two 4 inch hoses coming in to one 5 inch. Part number are C8657 and B8471. I hear you can get them in fiberglass? Thanks Steve

Steve, mine were next to impossible. I have 3.5" to 5" I believe (Crusaders). I looked everywhere trying to match the originals. I finally ordered them from High Tide (they were made by Algonquin I think) and those came through with the wrong angles on them. Beware it cost me a hefty re-stocking fee and shipping. I ended up cleaning, welding up and repairing the originals. 4" may be easier than 3.5" though If you do get them from High Tide be sure you get a picture first.

When I repowered I went with all new fittings. Centek fiberglass for the elbows and Y fittings. The elbows were a stock item but they custonm made the Y to my specs and as I recall it only took a couple of days. They were great to work with.
