Can someone recommend a good exhaust clamp? I once read about a clamp here that looked like a coupler crossed with a clamp? Might have Been TobyP that had Used it on his exhaust. Looking to replace some of the exhaust components on one of my old cars and would like to be able to disassemble/reassemble when needed. A URL for said clamp would be great. Thx!

I use the band style exhaust clamp never had a problem with them leaking as long as you have the pipes lined up fairly close.

Do you mean band clamps like this? http://3rdstrikeperformance.com/images/pye-hvc65_w.jpg
You can get them at NAPA auto parts, they're stainless steel and work well, but they're like 12-25+ bucks a piece depending on the size you need.

I always use stainless band clamps they have a 360 grip and since they don't crimp the pipes like standard clamps they are great when you want to disassemble or remove the exhaust.
Also if you want a quick style disconnect you can use v-band clamps but you have to weld the flanges on but the really nice thing is they don't need a gasket, this is what I used on my tailpipes.
