*Enough straight pipe to extend the donor midpipes rearward by 6"; give yourself a buffer. A local Midas shop did this one for $20, parts & labor. He used pipe that was the same diameter as the midpipes and expanded it slightly where it overlaps the mids for consistent pipe diameter back to the mufflers. He then welded the new material onto the donor mids. | *Enough straight pipe to extend the donor midpipes rearward by 6"; give yourself a buffer.

*Two 3.9" | *Two 3.9" diameter stainless steel t-bolt clamps from Summit Racing. Our fabricator couldn't remember the exact ones he used, but they should be [http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=SME%2D240400&N=700+303986+115&autoview=sku something like this]. About $11.00. Rubber insulators, from a set of muffler straps that were too large, were used under these. | ||
*Two rubber exhaust hangers from Pep Boys, about $4.00 each. They are oblong and have holes 2" center to center. You'll use these to mount the Supertrapps to your existing rear peg brackets. The bottom third of the hanger will need to be narrowed by 1/8" (on the inside) to accommodate the bolt in the t-bolt strap and two washers; this is easily done with a small hacksaw and file. | *Two rubber exhaust hangers from Pep Boys, about $4.00 each.
