haha, yeah...it looks a little odd but hell if it works and seals well its well worth it. i like how the butterfly valve is recessed into the pipe a little deeper so you could weld on a turnown or something without harming the operation of the valve. kinda hard to do that on most e-cutouts since they usually just bolt up to the y-pipe instead of all in one unit.
