Hmmm… well I have the copper hardware that came with the muffler so I can swap it out pretty easily still. The galling was a concern but I figured that liberal application of nickel based never seize would minimize any potential issues.
Having to cut off the original bolts which were rusted wasn’t a fun chore.
