Subject:Welding S&S Exhaust ??
From:Tom Rowsell

Hi all:

In an effort to postpone an expensive exhaust replacement, I'm wondering if
it would be possible to weld a "crack" in my S&S exhaust setup? See links to
pics below. The crack travels around almost 50% of the circumference of the
pipe. It is the pipe that joins to 4 to 1 junction to the cat, but near the
4 to 1 end. Unlike to stock setup, the S&S one does not have a
"collector/manifold". I was hoping to get it welded "in place", since
removing the pipe seems unlikely. I "foolishly" attempted a muffler
cement/hose clamp repair, but it would not stick.

My muffler is not S&S, and I "think" the crack occurred because I only have
the right-side muffler hanger, and no left one...

Thanks
Tom
