Put my new Pacesetter Headers on !!!!

Since these headers don't come with flanges, couldn't you stretch the y-pipe where it meets the collectors and use band clamps to seal them up?
If you turned the band clamp so that the thick part is parallel with the gound, I would think that you would gain about 1/2 inch of ground clearance, PLUS not have to worry about gaskets, or bolts backing off or anything like that. Just seems like it would make for a cleaner look, PLUS be easier (less labor intensive than welding flanges and such in place).

That's how they're made....the Y pipe is flares to go over the collector, and they use a pretty bigass clamp. Here's the setup on an LS1, but generally the same idea for the Y-pipe.

has anyone done a dyno before and after? Also what cold air is that? I am making my car SLP free soon and would like to know?
