Not necessarily Russell. If all three outlets are tied
together with a racing beat type exhaust flange it might almost
track the expansion of the muffler.<<<

I think I saw in Bells book or maybe McInnes that the bolt holes should
be enlarged or split to allow the flange to move against the engine and
that each pipe be allowed to float. If it is tight to the engine the
pipes will move and the engine won't. Am I mixed up here?
