3sge Beams B pipe question, Purchased a redtop beams motor but it didnt come with a B pipe Options

[WHATxTHExTIFF]

I have access to a gen 1 3sge B pipe so im wondering if a gen 1 3sge B pipe fit on a redtop beams exhaust manifold? Is there any modifications that need to be done? Ive done many searches and found nothing about the fitment of the gen 1 B pipe.

You can make a 3rd gen 3S-GE b pipe work but not a 1st gen. For the cost of the OEM b pipe, it's almost the same price to have an exhaust shop fabricate one for you.

thanx for replying! aww man so i couldn't modify it to fit? or are their any other options as far as b pipes form other cars? and most of the exhaust shops out here said they wouldnt be able to make a b pipe like that

Sure they can. Check out Batman722 and Hurley97's BEAMS swap thread. Presure2 made them one. The B pipes usually sell for around $200 for the 3rd gen or BEAMS. The biggest difference is where the O2 sensor mounts, but an exhaust shop can fix that easily. I don't see any on Ebay at the moment but there are probably several on Yahoo Auctions, if you're willing to pay the extra shipping.

This picture is borrowed from BonzaiCelica, it's a pic of the BEAMS B pipe.



Looking at this picture of an older 3S-GE, the flange going to the B pipe is different, so at that point the exhaust shop would be better off to just build a custom one anyway.
