HX40 Downpipe fit a HE351?
I just picked up a HE351cw from an '07 CR truck to put on my '01, but have heard conflicting stories about the downpipe. I do not have the cast elbow that the stock 3rd gens have because I was told that a HX40 downpipe would fit. True?
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Yes it will. However the hx40 uses a different flange than the HE351. My S300 was setup for an 05 truck and came with the cast elbow when I got it. I left the elbow off and called Source Automotive and ordered a "raw" hx40 style dp without a flange. Then I ordered a weld on flange that fit the S300 flange. You can do the same with your HE351.
Now I have found the flange cheaper than from Source but I can't remember where. I'll have to look and see if I can find it. But I do know for sure that Source can help you out.
Another thing to remember too is that if your current exhaust uses a 3.5" DP instead of a 4" you'll have to buy a new 4" pipe to replace the one that is just behind the DP since on most exhausts that is where it steps from 3.5 to 4. I did on my Expandit Exhaust system you might check yours to be sure.
