I need to find the part # for some replacement clamps for some SLP LT Headers. They are the heavy duty band clamps that come with the slp header install kit. I dont want to pay 120 dollars for 2 clamps.

Here is what I know. They are clamps made by Torca and are called Duraseal Band Clamps, Part # 74-0031. I am looking for a local distributor, warehouse, parts store, etc that carries these.

These are original equipment on many cars, including F-Bodies (Y-Pipe Clamp), Ford trucks, Vipers... However I cant find a part # for the clamps for any manufactures and when I ask the parts house if they have Torca clamps they look at me cross eyed

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried calling Torca directly? Here is a link, if that helps:

If you dont care what brand they are call SDPC I got my stainless band clamps from them when I bought my kooks, they have been great for over a year now.

Thank you for the replies so far. I am going to by the Dodge dealership by my work this afternoon and see if they have any in their parts department. I was wanting to put the LT's on this Friday which is why I am running around in circles trying to find some decent clamps.

If they dont have them I am going to call Torca or SDPC.

Thanks guys,

I went to the Dodge Parts department today and talked to the parts manager. The 2006 Viper uses Torca Band Clamps, the same as the SLP's and those used on Borla, Corrsa, and other exhaust systems.

I will let you know the part # in case anyone is interest or for future reference. By the way they are $13, which isn't bad for a stainless steel clamp.

Dodge dealer apparently doesnt know how to measure a clamp so I went to the chevy dealer and got the following part # 15102680. Of course I have to order them so I will let you know if they are 3"...

I like to use the wider sheet medal band clamps from any parts store. Napa or Car Quest have them. They are much wider like 4-6" & they conform to the pipe & seal a greater area better IMO. Cheaper than $13 also...

I might have used the 2 Bolt SS Clamps, but there isnt enough room on the header (SLP) and they dont actually "Crimp" the pipe and take up the slack. I am sure as hell not going to use the U-Bolt "Saddle Style" clamps as they destroy the Y-pipe and header

I was able to buy a couple from SLP about 18 month ago. I think they were about $12 bucks each plus shipping.
