Hi Steve,

If you really get serious about doing this change, IMHO, you'll probably want to change the leadpipe as well. If you take a large shank mpc and compare it to the very begining of the YEP-321 leadpipe you'll see that you would be adding what amounts to an additional venturi in to the system if you do not change the leadpipe as well. This will most likely do some weird thing to response/sound/intonation. I'm sure some of the repair folks on the BBS could help you with obtaining/making the parts for you.

The Wilson 4v non-comp uses a large shank mpc and has a similar configuration to the 321, so these parts my be an option for you to use.

Good Luck,

Lawrence Van Ameyde
