Vegablade Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 well i was driving my wagon a little fast down a not so beaten path kind of showing off to my friends and forgot about a little hill in the middle of the road, must have been doing a good 30 when i hit the thing, after i stopped my friend told me i got huge air, maybe 2 feet but he was pretty stoked so probably less. so anyways i screwed up my exhaust bent it away from the engine, and one bolt was missing, and when i tried to tighten it i stripped out the hold and so i have had a few different ideas going throught my head. a friend said to use a helix coil, has anyone done this before he said it wasnt to hard. i have since then beat the exhaust close to normal. any picture of a helix coil would be good.

I bought 2 sleevees from autozone and cut the y-pipe and spun the bolt pattern 180 degrees and bolted the flange to the 2 brand new unused holes provided by the heads. mounted the sleeves and welded em tight-came out perfect. good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
