       Steve, see my <A HREF="http://members.aol.com/Fkc43/stebro.htm">STEBRO/Vanagon Stainless Steel Exhaust System</A> and <A HREF="http://members.aol.com/Fkc43/sales.htm">
Vanagon Items Forsale</A> webpages where you will find information about a 
complete stainless steel system.  Very straight forward to install as all 
parts are made to OEM dimensions.  You do need to make sure the bolts and 
studs on the motor holding header pipes to the heads are in good to excellent 
condition otherwise the threads and or studs/bolts need to be replaced.  If 
you need to do this I advise you to install Helicoils in the heads and use 
all stainless mounting hardware.  All mating surfaces on the heads must be 
flat & clean and use new gaskets with Loctite Ultra Copper High Temp Silicone 
Sealant on both sides.  Metal side of the gasket goes toward the head.  
Complete stainless steel system including DANSK header pipes, cast iron 
collector, STEBRO/Vanagon J-pipe, EMICO CAT, BOSCH OXY sensor, STEBRO/Vanagon 
muffler w/tail pipe & mounting brackets, all gaskets and all stainless steel 
hardware is $1756 CND ~ $1225 USD plus $50 shipping to any continental USA 
location.  Vanagon List member discount of 5%.  You MUST ask for it when 
ordering.
