Sorry Tskm2 I haven't had the parts out to measure. I was close to affording the tires to complete my lift but now the exhaust has shit the bed and I will need to repair or replace the cat flange to manifold as it has rotted to the point it is leaking and getting too loud to drive the car, and since it's a daily commuter I need to sort it and the $$ will go to it instead of my tires. I ended up giving my wheels and tires to a friend of my wifes. She came to visit and her tires were so bald I wouldn't let her leave without me swapping them.

Thanks for the offer. I found a manifold on ebay for $50 US if I need it. I think the manifold is actually ok. it's the cat flange that is shot. Napa makes a 2 piece bolt on replacement I think I can use to fix it and change the gasket after some internet sloothing and thinking. Saves the work and cost to pull the whole midpipe and weld a new flange on. I shoved a bunch of 2 part high heat JB weld around the current gasket and my wife said it was quiet all the way from Woodstock to Fred 140 KM so that buys me the time to figure out the fix I can do the cheapest.

So I got a better look and it's actually my manifold that is rotten, depending on the angle my brain was flipping the flanges. I ordered a new one off ebay, basically the megan, it was blow out sale of 50 USD, but when it arrived it isn't tapped for the O2 sensor. SO I got a buddy who can weld a bung on for that. Next took some pics of the bolt and nut situation and they are crusty. Manifold came with a fresh gasket and NAPA in Houlton had the doughnut and bunge in stock. I'll need to grab new bolts for all the attachments at the engine and at the cat but so far I'm in for less than $100 CAD. So going to drill the whole and prep the header for the O2 bung, give it to my buddy to be ready by Friday. Every day this week when I get home I will pop the hood and PB blast the shit out of all the nuts and bolts. Friday I'll start removing old and replacing the header. Trying to decide if I should order a new O2 sensor, the one in the car has 368K km on it and I may have trouble removing it. I just don't want to spend the 160 or so US on one. That rust is what 11 Candian winters causes.

it's still lifted but on the standard size tires. I haven't had $$ to splurge on the AT's yet when the summer tires are still good. When they are worn and I need tires I'll get the AT's until then I'm rollin on the general Altimax and they wear like iron. I am about to do a bunch of reg maintenance to it this weekend though like parking brake adjust etc.
