Paul,
             do you have a supply for 321 stainless ball joints to go
between the manifold and the muffler.  Just got a quote for an
inconel bellows for $689 each !!  Ouch. Neil.

Neil,

I take it you are looking for something like the flared connection
used on automotive exhaust. Many new vehicles have stainless
exhaust. A wrecker; oops, recycler should have a converter and the
outlet pipe. Cut the joint parts off and weld to your exhaust. For a
bit more flexability, use the bolts and springs from mid '90s Dodge
Caravans. The springs held it together leak free but allowed some flex.

I bought some Inconel bellows from a company whose name I don't
recall at the moment, and I'm down in California at the moment- $140
each for 2 inch diameter, if I recall correctly. When I get home
I'll post the name.

If you are on socal Brian stop by if you have time.

Neil,

Do you need 321? Worked on a '05 Ford Explorer Sport Trac today. It looks like
a 2" exhaust with the flared joint with springs. Way cheaper than the $140
unless you buy the two components of the exhaust new. Should be able to get
the two joint parts from a wrecker for next to nothing.
