<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>I suggest that you use two supports for
the exhaust system. If you only mount the pipe in one place, within 25
flights the shaking of the engine on a Hyde mount will loosen up the o-ring
fit. Currently, I have 1 pipe mount at the aft end of the pipe, and one
mount at the neck of the pipe. This leaves the silicone coupler and
o-rings to keep the header in place and handle the shaking of the engine.
Or, I guess you could mount the pipe in the back, and make a mount for the
header. Up to you. The cooling fins on the back of the 170 do not
allow for fit of an OS/ MACS header, unless you either modify the header flange,
engines cooling fins, or have a short (1/4" or so) adapter.</span></font></p>
