Default Need to fab up Front Y-pipe: Will these work?

I need something to connect to my stock manifolds, then I can fab up piping to connect to my y-pipe..
Will these Work?
Basically, is the pipe a 2½" connection?

yes, it is a 2 1/2" pipe diameter on each leg of the Y if that's what you are asking.

But I dont think either of those have the ball end pushed into them.

the manifold has the lip on it, and the down pipe has the bowl on it. they kind of squeeze in together.

If you are trying to part somehting together... maybe it will work.

what are you doing?

ttt
anyone know what I need to buy?
I measured, and the ID on the manifolds is 2¼", but it's a ball end...so I need swaged connectors or something, right?
