will my H Pipe from my t-5 fit my new Tremec TKO?

I am going to buy a crossmember today and install my H-Pipe. Now I am wondering will it fit off my old t-5. I would think it would, but I am not sure If I have to drill another hole or not?

Anyone done this and know?

Thanks

Should have no problems, as far as I know there's no specific h-pipe needed for the tremec and I've never run across any manufacturer offering one to be tremec specific.

If you are concerned about the hangers after you shift the crossmember back, you can just whack 'em off. You'll have no issues running an off-road H w/o the hangers.

well if the hanger didn't reach I would drill 2 new pilot holes for the new mounts.... but maybe I could just remove the cross bracket. It just seems to me like it would be alot hanging on the headers cause I have dumps and there is only 2 more brackets holding the exhaust up by the muffler..

If you can get the hangers to work w/o it being a major PITA, then I'd use them if not, you should have no problems w/o them, the hangers on the muff's will be more that adequate.

Sean, I got it I just drilled 2 holes about 1 inch behind the holes that were already there in the h-pipe cross bracket. Works like a charm.

This trans is tough to get into 2nd gear. Every gear at first was hard, but now it's just 2nd and 5th is a little tough.

But it's all good
