Yeah. This calls for drastic measures. I am going to buy copper gaskets and have synapse fab a bracket to hold the uppipe secure to the block, and maybe add a flex pipe to the downpipe after the cutout. Might have to get the header flanges resurfaced too. I think the root problem is that the exhaust is bouncing around on hard launches/shifts.
