I have a 1976 KZ900 with a 4 into 1 Vance and Hines pipe. I just got the bike a couple of months ago. While working on it this winter, I notices that where the header pipe connects to the rear portion, the megaphone, there was some clay like stuff to stop the exhuast leak. There is no clamp or gasket. Is there a place that I can order the gasket or clamp to connect to two together properly ? Also, I noticed that some the studs where the header connects to the engine are stripped/rusted. Are all of the studs screwed into the engine ? I plan on replacing all of the studs.
V&H 4>1 are designed to fit closely without needing a clamp or gasket.
Could apply High-Temp Copper Permatex sealant. But don't overdo it. Just use a thin strip around header where muffler will barely push over and cover the sealant strip when the muffler is being installed. This is so it may be taken apart in the future if desired.
The exhaust studs are replaceable.
Z1E carries the exhaust studs.
