First off. Why do u need to know. Secondly, no one has an exhaust system just lying around. Well, at least I don't.

ejmack, im sorry but the two bolt flanges can differ greatly in bolt positions, so much that one wont fit with another

I dont know what your intention is on having this measurement but i can say with alot of certainty that it is not a universal measurement

well seeing that after market downpipes bolt up to stock midpipes... they should be fairly common size. I need it to see if a local exhaust shop has the flange to weld on to a downpipe for a custom single application.

E-

The number I gave you is VERY common.. And is the same size as the stock FD bolts.. It's what we use on the downpipes.
