I keep losing the donut on the passenger side y-pipe. I'm trying Felpro this time. I was wondering where the old donuts are going. Do I have a half dozen donuts collecting somewhere in the exhaust? I wouldn't think there'd be enough room for the donut to blow out sideways from its' original position.

are to putting it on right? there is no way for the donut to fall inside the pipe. it sits in a channel around the pipe.

I used to run carquest style that crushed great but eventually wore out, made from a metal/fiber composite..

The Fel-pros whic I also just got are actually sintered metal like the orginal equipment. They should not blow out no matter what as they are a very hard material.

Course none of this matters to me and I will have to completely redo my headpipes for my slp headers because of the milidon oil pan now too. It never ends lol

later

Looks like the felpros are holding. I tightened the bolts as much as possible. Hopefully it'll hold throughout the summer.
