unfortunately, at this time no one is producing any for 84-85's.
gbodyparts.com is considering making some.
Your best bet is to look for a used pipe.
The price can be pretty high.

Question Re: After Market Down Pipe

I think you can get a Houston in mild steel for less cash. Anyone aware?

The elbow is the key to any performance gain, IMHO.

Without the smooth bend of something like a Houston pipe, I don't think the pipe does much.
