Dean,
LOL....I have seen two grown men cry over trying to install a stock vw
muffler...many years ago...
I never touch the heater boxes except with a carefully placed prybar
to force them to match up with the muffler.
I quit using the donut method years ago cause the pipes(after all these
years) are never the size they used to be....generally waaay too loose and
leaky.
Do the weld on flanges and you will never be sorry. You will still need a
gently used pry bar and punch to hold one set of the holes in the right
place no matter what.
Cheers, dave
