She can be my workout buddy, resulting in the gap returning to its original state.

Attention Hoss-05, Shadycrew31, and hector castillo:

I would like to header wrap my entire exhaust from the DP all the way to the rear muffler section. Can you guys please do this for me? It looks like a pain in the *** and I don't really want to mess with it so if you guys could do it for me I would appreciate it.

no problem I'll hook you up bro.

you buy the wrap I'll do the work...


you may or may not have some bolts removed, once removed I may or may not wrap over those sections causing multiple exhaust leaks... Resulting in the greatest troll of the century.

OD's comment in my thread is kind of interesting...not that I think the "lobes" are twisted but there are only a few things that could cause the bore to be out of allignement/internal tension.....none of which I think I can measure
