Hey guys with a d&d system. I am trying to put mine on and the question that i have is. On the pipes that come off of the cylinders on the end that goes into the merge collector, there is a tiny little "nub" on each pipe is that to stop the collector from going to far or do they go into the collector? Also the muffler seams like it wont go on, should i sad a little paint away, i think that will make em fit.

The muffler fit is TIGHT with the paint. I had to use a rubber mallet to get mine to slide onto the elbow on my slip on.

Be patient and work it in. I used some copper antisieze on mine and it slid together.

Yep, its tight....

A little persausion with a mallet should do the trick...

Worth the effort and patience though...

Those are stops for the head pipe to the collector...

Wow, it seemed like a long time ago that I did mine. It was very tight.

ditto. mine was so tight, I thought that something was seriously wrong.

i used alot of elbow grease and quite a few curse words, but eventually, it fit.

Hope youre pleased with the results.

Definitely tight, use the rubber mallet. Do NOT want to push those nubs into the collector, those are stops. Be sure you are using sceaming eagle gaskets too! Have to use them on the D&D pipes.
