The factory ones have only two end bands (no middle) and they are located slightly closer to each end. Just as you said though, the flowmaster shields might work out as an alternative.

Depending on the length of the muffler, the Flowmaster one may work if cut down to that size using only two bands. Don't know if it would work. Jim you can measure those up, we might be able to use these.

Default h pipe still avail ftom ford

Last year I thoght my H pipe converters ( still original) on my 91 SSP were
plugged, dealer still had them avail for 400-500 price. I didnt need it in the end. This year I had the dealer check the VIN of my 2-86 SSPs for any outstanding recalls. Both had H pipe/cat recall. They said if my cats/H pipe
needed replacement they would do so under recall warranty. They checked dealer stock, said they were still avail from Ford. You might check Dealer.

I just looked up the recalls (2) and TSB's (22) and it isn't listed. I have to wonder if that's a factory internal recall so I'll have to go directly to my dealer. Thanks again!

Default Exhaust recall

RECALL NUMBER 91E13 Dated May 1992

Emissions RECALL 91E13- Exhaust System Catalyst Inspection/Replacement on certain 49-States 1986/1987/1988 and 1989- Model Year Passenger Cars Equipped with 2.3 L and 5.0L egines.

REASON for RECALL- The substrate material in the underbody catalysts on the affected cars may rattle and break up during normal customer usage. If the substrate breaks up, the exhaust emission level may exceded Federal Standards.

SERVICE ACTION: Cars returned for service will be inspected and, if necessary, have exhaust system underbody catalysts replaced at no charge.

Canada RECALL NOTICE TO DEALERS July 25, 1997

EMISSIONS RECALLS 91E13 & 91E14- PARTS ORDERING PROCEDURERS.

We have been contacted recently by several dealers stating that they have been unable to order replacement exhaust system catalysts.

Replace your order to 1-800-462-2232. Parts will be shipped to you promptly. Attached is order form to be faxed.

91E13

E8ZZ 5E212 D "Kit A"
F1ZZ 5F250 B "Kit B"
F1LY 5F250 B " Kit C"

My dealer stated I would require Kit B

They have not inspected the car yet, as I am still in the process of restoring it.. My car still has the origoinal exhaust and has not had the recall done . They said they would have to inspect it before ordering or replacing parts.
The parts were still available in Canada in April 2011.

It also list part numbers for recall 91E14, I am not sure what it covers..

this may be of help to you. I am hoping to find a dealer who will just order and replace the parts regardless of the what the inspection shows..
