Default o/r H pipe will it fit?

first off its a 90 lx coupe with a 351w that has Mac longtubes. i already have the mufflers and tips for my exhaust set up. i looked on the mac performance website under the 351w/5.8 section and for an o/r h pipe its only for a 5 speed... so it wouldnt work with my c4 auto then forsure?

the rest of the exhaust im getting custom bent and stuff in the shop but i need a o/r h pipe to fit onto longtubes that wont get in the way of anything..

can anybody steer me in the right direction? thanks in advance!

The h pipe for the 5 speed will work. You just have to watch how your trans cooler lines are ran I guess. That is the only thing that is close to my exhaust. I have mac's hpipe that comes in 3 pieces along with their pro dump kit and had no problems with fitment and clearances. The only thing I can suggest is getting a minitorque starter if you don't already have one. But with the longtubes it wouldn't be a midpipe issue.

yeah it looks like it has room straight back from the headers.. kinda hard to tell since my front end is a couple inches from the ground (351w and 4cyl front springs lol)

would my driveshaft loop get in the way you think??

Nice and easy without going over any bumps lol.
Rocks hurt too. I have a nice ding in my midpipe from a decent size rock I drove over.

Hell that is how low my exhaust sits now. Not too bad really just on high tracks and driveways that have that hump if you know what I mean.
