I'm working on a RAM, and replacing the clips with a band clamp (from Scuba Museum). The clamp has a recess for the exhaust horn, but this particular can has the horn sitting damn near on the lip of the can.... even with the cutout, it interferes with the clamp. So my question is can I trim the recess on the clamp further (would have to go all the way to the outer ring) without ill effects, or should I be looking at tweaking the horn a bit to gain clearance.
Any advise appreciated
Respectfully,
James
