Here's my plan. Ordered the 350 valence from Levittown at a VERY reasonable price of $725 shipped (with forum discount). Have Roush (with H) on my GT now.

Ordered 2 of these below off Summit and some extra clamps if needed (have regular and got some lap joint).

2.5" inlet 2.5" outlet. Plenty of room to cut them down length wise (13") with a chain tube cutter that was $30.

Only issue may be if the base of the Y (where the word Inlet is) doesnt fit behind the valence since it looks tight back there. But all total in at about $825 of parts if it works. At worse I will have an exhaust shop cut off the base of the Y and weld it directly so its tighter to the muffler for $50 or whatever he wants.

Hoping it all fits clamped up without going to the shop.

WAY cheaper than the $1800 axleback kit. So they basically want $1100 for the axlebacks if the valence is $725-750. Ripoff and may be way too quiet for me.

I would also be interested in the summit part number and the valence part number on Levittown website

I am interested to see how this turns out.

I have the Roush Axel Backs (which I love) but would also love to have the GT350 Valence.

http://www.levittownfordparts.com/ford-mustang-rear-valance-p-5736.html valence PM Levittown for the forum code.

https://www.summitracing.com/parts/...-5_gbrC2vDne33EFNSdSggCP_nVfqtO4isaAqjA8P8HAQ these are the Y pipes, I just went aluminized since I live in the south without snow/salt and they're cheap if they dont work, $25 each side.

Jegs has stainless ones but theyre $53 each, double the cost. Wasnt willing to risk $100+

whether they fit or not is another story; they appear to be right on from the shape. Will figure that out likely later this week when it's all shipped here.

Subscribed! Didn't know you can get just the valence for sale! This has me reconsidering buying the rear valence in that case.

What will be key is if the roush or any muffler's outlet sits center between the exhaust holes in the valence. centered both vertically and horizontally.

From what Ive seen it should. The Borla kit are just Sport mufflers with a Y outlet.

And equally all of the stock axlebacks should be centered to the OEM valence cutouts to begin with to fit. In theory top to bottom alignment should be ok too, but if close both are relatively easy fix to bend on the hangers a bit to adjust.
