Y Collector 3in

The Schoenfeld Y Collector 3in is a premium exhaust Y-pipe designed for builders and engine enthusiasts who demand reliable, high-flow exhaust merging. This steel exhaust component consolidates dual 3-inch inlet runners into a single 3-inch outlet, making it ideal for dual-carb or dual-intake manifold applications requiring efficient gas flow transition. Built from durable steel with a professional black paint finish, the Y Collector 3in serves as a critical junction point in custom exhaust systems, particularly in street rods, race cars, and performance engine builds where manifold design impacts overall breathing and power delivery.

Engineered with precision inlet and outlet diameters of 3 inches, this collector minimizes turbulence and backpressure at the merge point—a critical factor in maximizing scavenging efficiency. The steel construction provides excellent thermal stability under high-temperature exhaust conditions, while the black paint protects against rust and corrosion in typical underhood environments. Weighing just 2.33 lbs with compact dimensions of 7.15 x 3.1 x 15.2 inches, the Y Collector 3in integrates seamlessly into tight engine compartments without sacrificing flow characteristics. The dual-inlet design accommodates bolt-flange or slip-fit connections, allowing flexibility in custom piping layouts and manifold configurations.

This collector is best suited for engine builders, restoration specialists, and performance enthusiasts installing custom dual-manifold or dual-carb setups. Real-world applications span vintage muscle car restorations, street rod builds, and small-block or big-block engine swaps where factory single-manifold exhaust won't suffice. Proper installation requires matching inlet runner sizing and outlet piping to your downstream muffler or resonator diameter for optimal system balance. Verify inlet flange or slip-fit compatibility with your specific manifold setup before purchase to ensure seamless assembly and maximum exhaust flow.
