All three downpipes had quite different measurements for this specification.

Just and fyi to readers who are starting to be paranoid that Pypes downpipes don't fit. In this situation, the Pipe wasn't out of spec, it was a mislabeled chevy downpipe.
Pypes has delivered probably 1000 pair of downpipes for both HO/RA and standard manifold installations and we have yet to have a defectively bent pipe. The limited problems stem from several misboxes, downpipes being put on cars we havent' tested and various customer car modifications that changed the exit position of the manifolds.
