Actually most of them are clamp on. Your choice boils down to stainless steel or regular steel. Since you are not plannig to weld it on, material choice is up to you.

I got a Dynomax which is stainless steel and has a flange that can allow the output to be rotated for directional adjustment (Which will come in handy should I install a dump fitting.). I bought it from Summit...

I have a jegs cutout, cheap but effective ($40)....I took a dremel to the welds on the inside to smooth it out.
