hey guys. on my pacesetter longtubes, i noticed there wasn't (excuse my improper knowledge of names) the little clamps that usually come stock on the collector.

not for a camaro i know, but im talking about the thing to the far right of the picture on the header itself to give a better description.
so do i just buy a pipe a bit larger than the 3" collector, put it over it then weld it? sorry for the dumb question i just want to be sure

 

Do you mean your Pacesetters do not have the 3-bolt flanges on the end of the collector, but instead are "plain"? If so, you either add/weld on flanges or use band clamps.

 

exactly! thank you it's all i was wondering.

 

If you are not going to use the catalytic converter then all you have to do is cut the intermediate pipe. That is if you have a aftermarket 3" exhaust. That's all I had to do to mine. I used band clamps to hold it together. The band clamps are nice if you ever have to take the exhaust off.

 

no cats used. thanks max
