Thanks, Brad - unfortunately, as you can see from my earlier post - it=20
will be a while before I can find out. Daks rule, but I like those=20
V-Dubs too..... fast as hell in the =BC....... Just not too good for=20
towing :-) !
I just got off the phone with West Oaks - so far, so good - they're=20

Subject: Re: DML: MP y-pipe install question
In a message dated 98-07-18 20:19:49 EDT, you write:
<< The instructions for the installation of my MP headers and y don't=20
mention anything about a clamp or sealer or anything where the two y=20
pipe parts join under the tranny. Do you just literally put one in
the other and it seals? MP tech line is closed on Saturday.

Possible. My experience with racing VW's (both desert and drag=20
racing) has
shown me that all most all aftermarket exhaust suppliers build there=20
exhaust
for VW's that just slip together. They seal with carbon build up.=20
Now, I
think that some kind of sealer would be a good idea. As the exhaust=20
flows, if
there is a big enough gap inbetween the pipes, the exhaust may creat a=20
vacuum,
which will suck oxygen in, and the O2 sensor will think the truck is=20
running
lean.
