Grippy, those are just band clamps over the exhaust which slipped over the header collectors? any sealing problems? Have a brand or a place to get those? Seems like people are running into problems with those clamps that seal two pipes taht are butted together vs the slip fit like you have.

Thanks,
Andrew

MagnaFlow uses Torca brand band clamps.

So are these Cats available yet through distributers? My exhaust guy is a Magnaflow distributer and I am wondering if he can get them?

Hunting down information for these things has been like a treasure hunt.
Part numbers are set and distributors can start taking orders immediately. Actual ship-dates are still two weeks out or so. My own order is placed.

Magnaflow 599XX Series ULTRA High-Flow Performance Metallic-Cat:
-------------------------------------------------------------
Series 59920:Round, Center/Center, 11" end-to-end
59925 - 2.25" Inlet / Outlet
59926 - 2.50" Inlet / Outlet
59928 - 2.75" Inlet / Outlet
59929 - 3.00" Inlet / Outlet
59920 - 3.50" Inlet / Outlet
-------------------------------------------------------------
Series 59950:Round, Compact, Center/Center, 8" end-to-end
59954 - 2.00" Inlet / Outlet
59955 - 2.25" Inlet / Outlet
59956 - 2.50" Inlet / Outlet
59958 - 2.75" Inlet / Outlet
59959 - 3.00" Inlet / Outlet

I don't think I'm allowed to specifiy where I ordered them from but it sounds sort of like "Plummit Spacing", or the price I paid which is more than about $114.94 and less than around $114.96 each.

Hope this info helps. There's nothing else on the market anywhere close to these things in terms of flow and catalytic capacity.
