WTB: OBDII exhaust parts
Update: I'm now looking for the two front pre-cat pipes from any year SVX, as they are the same.
This is kind of a long shot, but I thought I'd throw this up here for a bit before I just take it to a shop and have a custom fix done. I'm looking for the two pre-cat pipes and the 2-into-1 cat with O2 sensor bung for an OBDII SVX. They must be leak free. If the gasket is bad I can replace that, but the pipes themselves have to be leak free, as well as still have enough material left on the flanges that they will still seal. I did the aftermarket Magnaflow fix a couple years ago and it's starting to leak again, not to mention the check engine light that i have to deal with because it moved the O2 sensor to the front of the cat. Let me know what you've got.

Other than that, depending on what parts you used, the 97 OEM cat and midpipe use a flange and flange gasket and not the donut gasket that the 92-96 models use. Based on your post, I'm guessing that connection was "hacked" in order to utilize the magnaflow. |

I know it's a shot in the dark, but this is my last attempt at finding some used replacement parts. If I can't, I'll find a shop to do exactly what you said and weld it all together.

Re: WTB: OBDII exhaust parts
Good luck. After thinking about it, you can actually use the front section from an OBD1 or any SVX. You would just need an OBDII cat converter. The front flange is the same across all years. So that may be of some help at least in your search.
And I didn't mean "hacked" as a negative term at all. I'm used to the nastry rust so piecing together things is common. |

With that said, I'm now looking for the two front pre-cat pipes from any year SVX, as well as an OBD II cat.
