Exhaust port is worn out where pipe connects :o

Your exhaust port is thoroughly worn out.. So?
So, a worn out port can cause the exhaust to leak.
A little spooge, no biggie?

If you don't want full performance and you want to risk burning up your engine, run it.
However, if your like me, I want full performance and I don't want to risk my engine.
So, what can you do?
Most guys fill it up full of Hi temp silicone and call it good.
If you want to go the next step up, use a stainless steel insert like this one.

Yes, you will need to have your port bored out to accept the insert but it is well worth the effort.
Who can you get to provide that service?

Tom Morgan at TMR can do it for you.
