The borla ones are $22/each, the summit racing and walker exhaust branded ones are 7.95 each. The borla clamps from the pictures look like better quality, but I don't think they look 3 times better... They're all stainless anyway.

I used copper RTV also, I've had great success with it in the past

Thanks man I got the hangers from Verociousmotorsports dot com...click the "Fabrication parts" link on the left. They were cheap and they shipped fast...got a cool t-shirt from them too

Ahh yes, u do love to pic *****. And soon, you'll be a vid ***** too.

Save youself some trouble, send me those exh. hangers in these pics; like black04, where did u score yours from? Or as he said, didja just reuse some off the stock exhaust & buy some rod to bend?

And I really could use that DMH cutout too.

No vids / sound clips?!?

You coulda, I bet ya had other plans for the night...
Yea, I'm real redneck Fuhgeddabadit...

See above for exhaust hanger info...it actually looks like a ricer site, but one of the members here (sorry to whoever it was, can't remember, but feel free to chime in and kick my butt for forgetting!), sent me in their direction after he did his exhaust.

Just noticed that Verocious has exhaust clamps also...and you're right, it's TorcTite, made by Torca.

Yea...I was kinda busy last night

I may or may not get to the rest of this today now...kinda stayed up late, slept late, and I have to run a few errands, but I still have a few days off this week so it will be done by next weekend for sure

If the arm's at 75%, it doesn't really matter anymore does it? Ah alas, u meant to make $.

Torca, I don't even have to look, I know that's it. I favorited that link, as I wanted a source for those hangers for awhile. Even comes in s/s.
That link is nice to know, JIC. Ya never know.

What happened to Mr. Ambitious?!? Stayed up late.
You're too old.

Can't very well run errands from a computer screen...

Damn Tom, tell it how it is!

My clamps are s/s btw...everything's stainless except the hanger behind the muffler, and maybe a few bolts which are grade8 zinc coated.

...never too old, I just need to get 22 hrs sleep every day...
