Purchased a Dansk Sport Muffler for the SC, everything was going well until I tried to install new straps: they're too short. When I measured circumference of the new muffler, it was about 1" larger than the original.
Looking for a solution, and I am thinking about either getting a longer strap fabricated or possibly trying to have the factory straps lengthened somehow.
Anyone else have experience with this issue?

are they the dansk-supplied straps? if so i'd send 'em back, if not then dansk should have supplied straps
i had the same issue with my monty...except the monty-supplied straps were too long (i still have them). ended up using the old porsche ones

I suggest you not try to extend the straps by welding in a piece. They are tightened very tight and may break when hot under a load. Just the safety part of me talking. I'd find the correct ones (length) no matter how long it takes.
Good luck.

Excellent point. I am also going to see if an extra long bolt is available to do the trick.
