well as it says i got my new exhaust down pipe (thanks kreg)

now i need to install it, this could be tricky as i dont have a welder, i was thinking of sliiding a pipe over the outlet on the down pipe then using a exhaust clamp and just tightening it as much as i can and then put muffler cement around the 2 pipes,


what do u think??

i know cheep ass lazy way of doing it ::) ;D

my lug nuts require more torque then my engine makes ;)

Just do what it takes to get it to a muffler shop then.
A weld will last much longer and give a tighter seal.

make sure to buff/grind all the rust/corrosion off before putting it together. That way the muffler shop will only have to fire up the welder and be done. If they have to clean it all up it will either cost more or you will get a crappy weld.
