V-band header reducers/DSE headers

[badazz81z28]

Anyone know which v-band clamp reducers you use with DSE headers? I can't find any....trying to get something on my 70 Camaro so I can drive it.

thanks

Anyone on this? I don't see any direct bolt on exhaust working. What have others done?

Is everyone doing 100% custom with DSE headers?

what exactly are you trying to do and whats the issue?

What size is the header flange?

What size exhaust are you trying to run?

[icemanrd19]

headers come with 2 part v band flange. One part is already on the collector. Measure the inside diameter of the 2nd piece of the v band flange. Whatever size that is buy reducer with that size to the size of your exhaust. Weld the reducer to the exhaust and your done

I'm really looking for collectors that have v band ends. Looks maybe pypes is my solution.

why? You should already have the 1 piece of the v band attached to your headers and the other band laying around. Get the collector. Weld the other v band clamp to it and be done with it. You are overthinking it.

BTW the summit interlocking v band clamps worked well for me. They slide over the pipe and then you weld a bead around the pipe and clamp.
