603 Flex pipe dimensions
Does anyone know the dimensions for the flex pipe for a 1991 350SDL? There is a local shop that sells all sorts of flex pipes but there isn't a system to look them up.
(I'm asking before I spend an hour getting under the car and removing all the under body panels....)

Alright this flex pipe is still busted and I really want to get it fixed before it gets any colder out. From what i've been able to gather the pipe would have to be cut out and the new flex pipe welded in place.
Based on that I'm thinking that it might actually be easier to just replace the entire front pipe. Any ideas who sells them? My local parts supplier says they can't get it.....

Pure muffler shop job.. just go there and have it done. They will take off your down pipe, measure the flex, weld a new one in. If you take the car with under panels off (probably a good idea) the whole job would take less than one hour.

That quick huh? Alright next problem then....finding a reputable shop to do the job (I don't want some dummy breaking a bolt off in my engine block or some nonsense like that)
