e99 Up Pipe options

[alabamafrog]

I need to fix a broken up pipe collector and up pipe leaks on my truck. While I’m at it I may as well make it more betterest so what are my options?
Does anyone make or sell a performance up pipe system or parts for the early 99?
If I have to go back stock then will the collector off a 99.5 fit or do I have to find one for the e99 or repair mine?
Any ideas or comments?

Nobody has any advice for me?

Thought International had a improved kit for early and late 99's. Early one being more expensive. Could be wrong though. I would call and check.

Im pretty sure there are some aftermarket pipes out there. Ill try to find them.

I've spent several hours searching internet part places and reading old posts and haven't found anything yet. I need to call IH and ask them but I don't think about it during normal business hours.

Have you called ITP/Sinister out in AZ? I know he has the new pipes for 99.5's, he'd probably know for sure what your E99 options are.

I called Southland International Trucks, Inc. which is the IH dealer in Huntsville Al and talked to their parts guy. He said he don’t know nuttin about no bellowed up pipes or any king of up pipes beside the factory straight ones. He also said he only showed one kind of Y collector for the back of the turbo.
So I guess that was a dead end.
This e99 thing can be a real pain in my sphincter washer!

Well I called Ford and they said stock e99 prices are as follows;
R up pipe $96
L up pipe $72
Y thingy $134
So the total would be $330 out the door, not including any gaskets or bolts or flanges or anything else. And thats back stock, not improved at all.

They also said they didn’t know about the bellowed up pipes and all they could get is what came stock on it.

before you by, get the part numbers and check with an online for parts dealer. my dealer in town likes to rape me on parts..... google tousley ford parts, they have been the cheapest i can find anywhere. they ship quick too, i have bought several things from them.

Okay, it looks like my options are;
IH bellowed kit for e99 $900
Beans brass seals on original pipes $85
I still have to either fix my Y or get a new one for $135
