My Pacesetters fit great! Went in easy other that the broken manifold bolt
I build my own offroad Y pipe and I used V-band clamps to attach to the collector which I would highly recommend. They are pricey but make exhaust removal so easy.

Yeah i had a broken manifold bolt on each side at the very back and luckily when it was bolted all together i had no leaks.. i would also suggest the v band clamps or atleast the band clamps that jjst crimp around the pipe.. i wouldnt use the u bolt/crush type clamps..

man those u bolts are a PITA. on my old setup the nut had backed off the bolt to where it was just rattling around and the pipes were still sealed type from being crimped on so hard!!! talk about having fun trying to remove them. ended up breaking out the sawzall since they didn't line up to new headers

Use the band clamps if you dont want leaks. The u bolt ones are junk
