I remember ole Stacy on Trucks showing a product on his show one time (usually I dismiss the products as wildly out of reach) that I thought was interesting.
They were these clamps that go around your collectors and essentially vice the thing together. It still used 3 bolts, but they were contained in a housing that provided uniform compression to the collector. Seemed like with the right bolts you could tighten those things down and they'd never leak.
I don't remember the vendor though...anyone remember what I'm talking about?
