Post crossover exhaust help
Im having issues with the baffle rattling loose. It has oglonged the hole where the bolt goes through and I cant get it tight enough. Has anybody ever welded it on there?
Thanks

You can't put some man hands on it and wrench it tight? You may have to replace the bolt with a new one if the threads are stretched or damaged.

If that doesn't work, put a new bolt anyways. Put a tack or two on the baffle to keep it from rattling so that you can grind it off if you ever need to remove it.

Thanks for the reply
The man hands broke the new bolt before it got tight. Why would I need to remove it.

Clean out carbon build up? Even though its SS, it could deteriorate
