Muffler clamp Idea! The muffler is going to be deformed by a clamp (that is the job of the clamp) Repeatedly doing this will wear out the muffler from metal fatigue, and is not handy. The best I can come up with is a screw mouint system. Replace the 13" long exhaust pipe with athree pieces as follows: Start at the manifold casting using a short, 8" long 2" pipe size black iron pipe nipple (threads on both ends). Then a 2" black Iron coupling, then a short 4" piece of 2" black iron pipe with threads on only one end. Clamp the muffler to the last piece, and (using silver Permatex Molybdnum disulfide based antisieze compound on the threads to allow unscrewing)screw the pipes together, and into the manifold. Tighten the two bottom pieces first, and nice and tight, then screw the top pipe into the coupling less tight. This will allow you to unscrew the muffler when ready to put it in the garage. Some mufflers will fall down on the pipe and hit the hood, So no clamp seems less desirable. JimN
