Thanks Spaz, looks like those are in stock near my house. I will go there then.
I never buy these, wasn't aware they were readily available everywhere, my bad. Thanks for the heads up guys.

Had to get some 3" clamps like this for the Vette when I put in a Z06 exhaust, went to napa and they were under $10 each. Worked perfect.
Or I have two of those clamps pictured in 2.5" but the bolts should work for 3" if you want to reuse what you have. Free, I'll give them to someone on the cruise so you don't have to pay for shipping even.

The oriely ones are like 10 bucks, I'll just pick them up tonight from there on my way home. Thanks for the offer though Andrew, I appreciate it.
I am planning to work on the car this weekend quite a bit so I would rather just get them now.

The bolts on that old clamp look like they were made from standard Buschur grade SS as well.

Yea, it bugs me they rusted so badly :(
The exhaust was like 850 bucks too. thankfully the tips still look new and the piping itself has held up.

The nicest stainless Buschur sells is the rebranded Chinese eBay o2 housings, the rest of his crap is either mild steel or 409SS which rusts pretty badly after a salty winter. My Buschur clamps were trash after 1 winter/10k miles on my IX.

Dropped my turbo and exhaust manifold off at MAP yesterday for porting/coating. Then picked up these.

Anyone else used the ID1300's? It came with pins and plugs and it looks like I need to solder them on. I am Ok with doing that, although I prefer not to. Just curious if I could get drop in ones so I don't have to.
Anyway, working on my fuel pump install today.

Ya those clamps are available everywhere, kinda nice it uses parts that are readily available honestly...been there on the rust though.
What's with the fuel pump I see lying there? Seems to say DW on it... :)
ID1300's, interesting. Not sure on the soldering of pins, that seems goofy. Good luck!
