RivNut Member Registered: 12/07/06 Posts: 671 Loc: NE Kansas	Arnulfo, Flowmaster's #42582 is a crossflow dual inlet/dual outlet design with an inlet and an outlet on each end. Both inlets and outlets are 2.5". The overall lenght is 24". It would require the addition of some extra pipe, but it would fit in the original space.
