Bought my muffler clamps from Mack trucks- same type of clamp, spring loaded, heavy duty(built like a Mack truck) for about $ 15 dollars each a few years ago. Worked like a charm. Jerry

Can I get a straight fron end shot of your car? I just did a long hood conversion and I have a huge gap between my bumper and the hood/fenders.....I ordered the seal that goes between it....but from what I remember....most long hoods don't have that big a gap.....

Mike,
Not exactly front on, but close. There is a seal which goes between the top of the bumper and hood and fenders. You can see it in this photo as a line of black. I'll take another photo square on and close up of the seal. BTW - I still need to contact you about the graphics trade for the wheel spacers. Doug

Good info on the muffler clamps. Was looking for something to use on my 3.6 and this is what I needed!
