another thing on my exhaust. Where you bolt the flange to the motor, 2 out of the 3 holes are pretty much stripped from the previous owner, can i re tap these holes or what?

Tap, or heli coil. Just try not to go any deeper

I would use some high temp silicone on all the joints. And make sure your complete exhaust is mounted properly. Start with the pipe coming off the cylinder and work your way back.

How does the heli coil work?
