They want over $50 for the adaptor, but the local diesel shop had a fleetgaurd one under an International parts number that was under $11. The same Cummins one was about $30.
Nahh, I cut the sheild off of the original DP and welded some bolts to the pipe to secure it. Took a bit of reshaping due to the larger dia and radius of the bend but it worked out ok.

if you have an hx35, just put a cast turn down outlet on it instead of the v-band clamp outlet, then you can get a 2nd gen 4" downpipe to fit. It would be much cheaper. When i had my hy35 on my truck, it had the turn down outlet and i got a 2nd gen 4" downpipe to fit in my 92. it was tight but it did fit! I bet you could buy a used 2nd gen 4" pipe from a 2nd gen guy for cheap. You could probably find the different cast outlet on ebay

Downpipe

Trying to install a BD Super turbo.From some simple measurement,it appears the exhaust is back towards the firewall another two inches.Is it that tight or do I need to go to measuring school? Looks like the elbow needs to be cocked towards the engine a few degreees for a LITTLE bit of room.Sure would be nice to move the whole engine forward about four inches.
