Default Need pacesetter collector advice.

I have searched without much luck so....I have installed my longtubes and I need to connect them to the tsp true duals . this is a 3" to 3" connection. There is not much room to weld on the top of the header so I quess I am gonna go with a clamp of some sort. I don't want any leaks and I hate doing things 3 times sooo please advise.

My current plan is to swell a 3" pipe and slip ip over the collctor with a t-bolt clamp.

The TSP system is alread swagged to slip over the headers. Best bet is to use the clamps like you mentioned or preformed bandclamps.

Yeah, the system has been hacked tho and I have to make a foot long piece to connect the new headers to the used dual setup. I should have welded flanges when the headers were on the ground huh. Live and learn tho.

Sounds like the perfect time to install the stainless steel flex tubing in that gap to allow more movement in the exhaust. I'm considering this when I do my header install.
