In other words, the larger diameter on the baffle should be a snug fit to the ID of your pipes, and that's why it's the last thing to slip into the pipes. Most baffles have a tapped hole on that diameter, which is where you have to drill a hole into your pipe (assuming there isn't already one that lines up) and run a screw through it to hold the baffle in.I picked-up a set of headers with fishtail straight pipes. I ordered a couple of 8" baffles for them. Any advise on installing them? Does the flange on the baffle go towards the engine or away from it in the pipe? Thanks again, Mike
Since you have fishtails that also attach to the end of your pipes, you're going to have to figure out how that all works – it's possible the same screw that holds on the fishtails could hold the baffles in as well.
