I looked at them yesterday and am wondering if I can pull out the side pipes with the parts that curve in at the fender and cut a slit in the pipe then put a stout flat clamp on them...thoughts?
I did something similar. I started with a solid piece of stainless steel rod. I drilled out the center, welded it to the side pipe and then cut a slice in it. I can now clamp the sidepipe down over the header pipe. While still not perfect it did make a huge difference in helping eliminate exhaust leaks. I'll try to attach a picture.
