Title: Exhaust V band Clamp
Post by: PRZNBUS on October 25, 2015, 03:25:42 AM
After firing up my 1986 MC9 one last time for the winter (dang it starts and runs good), I found one of the exhaust clamps had a broken bolt. I don't have an engine parts manual for my 8V92 yet, can somebody look up a part number for the clamp for me? Is there a better clamp than what the factory used? I've looked and the prices are from cheap to way expensive, what's the difference?

The exhaust clamp I took off is around 5" across.
