He has opened two threads and hasn't responded to either. Clearly trolling.

There have been a few cars done that way. They worked out, but the owners knew what they were doing and were not afraid if fab work

Didn't one guy end up using a pallet of some ducting RTV to seal the V-band clamps to prevent leaks? Not to mention paper thin exhaust piping.

C'mon, I used furnace cement!
Also, it's been replaced with graphite gaskets that work

$2k FI application..... no wonder this thread started with the words "EBay".

Jeebus, doubt you can even get the SUPPORTING MODS for $2k. Give it up if you're not going to do it right.
