Magnaflow on the way...clamp questions
I ordered my new Maganflow SI/SO cat-back for my '07 F-150 and it should be here sometime this week. I hopefully am going to put it on this weekend weather and time permitting. Does this kit come with standard muffler clamps or barrel style clamps? I am not planning on getting it welded up so I want the best type of connectors. Also, are the clamps made from stainless or just plain steel? Thanks for the help!
The kit will come with stainless steel band clamps. However, in the past I have found the MagnaFlow clamps to be lacking (the bolts tend to shear before you get to their recommended torque level) and generally spring a few extra bucks for some decent band clamps at NAPA.
Here is a picture of one of the NAPA clamps as installed on my MagnaFlow system:
