cut exhaust

well i bought a exhaust system off a member on tech and in order to ship it, he cut the exhaust up into pieces.... i realize i can mostly use clamps but he made some cuts at corners.. what can i do about that? i have no welder any ideas? i'm pretty sure the exhaust isnt stainless steel, although it may be. i really dont know

You will have to get it welded.

Or, if you REALLY want to rig it, you can probably use exhaust repair tape as a temporary fix.

its a pain... im gonna see if i can get my money back on the exhaust system first before i try to install it... if not im gonna just install it. its definately a better deal for someone with their own welder. i = crap

but thanks for the help everyone, especially alex i appreciate the offer bro and i will probably take you up on it come spring time if it doesnt sell

what kind of mufflers are they? they kinda look like fartcans lol. I would just go out to advance auto and buy a couple tubes of jb weld and she will be as good as new!

EDIT: i take that back, they look like magnaflows.

yup... i put it up for sale on ls1tech meanwhile. if i get back what i paid for it i'm just gonna sell it. as much as wanna keep it, its just too much of a headache for me

even if alex or someone can weld it up for me, i still need to install it which doesnt look too easy, and then weld on some high flow cats. ahhhh!!!

hey why dont u keep the mufflers, bring the cut parts to a muffler shop and put them together, then have them replicate them? or you could do it first, then sell it, and get the mufflers you want.
