[Roadsters] Exhaust problems - the cutting - X

[ljordan704 at netscape.net]

 What are vibration mounts, are they the little square rubber blocks like the one near the tailpipe on the stock exhaust system?

Replace your mounts and wrap the exhaust in high temp bandage where it passes
the x member.

I have opened my x memebr to take a 2 1/2'' pipe and used vibration mounts
instead of exhaust cotton reel mounts and still don't have a problem.> From:
