Hello from Minnesota.

I need a header with a 2.5 inch output pipe that will bolt up to a 97 S3T with a V&H 2.5 inch input muffler. OR a muffler with a 2.0 inlet pipe. My present V&H muffler with a 2.0 inlet is damaged beyond repair at the 90 degree elbow. Stock S3T muffler would be OK too, or any other muffler that will connect to an S3T stock header (2.0 inch header outlet) thanks, Bruce

if you don't mind black header this should work;

i may have a SS 97 pipe in the garage, i'll check.

nope, the one i have is a 2.5" pipe, already polished too!

good luck.

Thanks Sleeze, I just bought the black pipe. St Paul Harley has the listing, they are about 40 miles from where I live. Hope that sucker has A 2.5 inch pipe that will fit my new looking V&H muf

i may have screwed you up, i just re-read it, that pipe is likely a 2" outlet, i mixed up which way you needed to go, sorry, crap!!!

you need a 2.5" header or 2" muffler!!!! duh!!! winner!!!

i must have been channeling Charlie!!!

Sleez, it's OK, i'll just add it to the pile of stuff to sell if its a 2.0 incher.
There's a lot of confusion about those header/muffler sizes everywhere. There's early tuber stock mufflers on ebay that are 2.5 inch input. I've been asking the sellers about the input size and so far they're all saying 2.5 inches even for the 96-98 tubers. What do you want for the one you got in your garage if the black one actually turns out to be a 2.0 inch header? Bruce

i spent over 7 hrs polishing it, i'll post a pic and you make me an offer, i probably won't use it anyhow, when i finish building my S3 i'll either use a race pipe or something else?

as bad as i feel about leading you astray when i know better, make an offer and i'll ship it to you as soon as i can???

Man that does look nice!! If the black one comes through as a 2.0 header i'd offer you $150 for yours and pay shipping too. Should be a few days before the black header gets here. I'd say that there's at least a 50 50 chance that the black one is a 2.5 also. Bruce

thanks bruce,

i am sure that a 97 cyclone was a lightning head model, therefore a 2", almost positive.

keep me posted.
