Doc, tell me again about your Dak. What cab style, motor/trans, year. I
installed my Leach headers by myself except for welding. I think clamps
won't work, at least in my application ('98 R/T). If you call Leach
directly, ask his opinion. I have a reg cab and had to cut off all but
2" of pipe going to the cat inlet. The Y-pipe outlet wasn't a close
enough fit to clamp, and if it were, the Leach pipe is thick and
chromed. I dont think it'll crimp very well. The slip joint in the
drivers side Y-pipe runs very close behind the oil pan and there isn't
room for a clamp, and once again, it's chrome. If you clamp a chrome
pipe, the chrome cracks and flakes off. I don't have to tell you about
rust, I'm sure you're familiar with that. Also, you'll need access to a
lift and a sawzall to complete the install. About a 4hr job. Alan S.
