Just picked up an FMF pipe from a guy for MAD cheap!! No flange though. Looked all over the website but can't find the flange/springs for sale. Can anyone point me in the right direction?? Thanx!
FMF flange/springs?

i had the dame problem man, i was going to email them but i got lucky and blaster199 had one i bought. i have seen plain flanges on ebay from time to time also.
Weld it onto what, the head?!?!! Uhm, no!
I guess I could maybe cut up the stock pipe and use that as part of the flange.....but is there any way that I can purchase just the flange?

I emailed FMF....hopefully they will sell me just that flange.
Luckily I now have two extra stock pipes, so I guess I could fab one from them.
Anyone got any close-up pics of the FMF flange?? Measurments? Would be appreciated. Thanx!

What part exactly are you looking for the flange where the pipe goes onto the head or where the pipe and silencer come together?
I can take a pic of my FMF pipe where it bolts to the head but i dont have anything on mine that holds the two together....

the flange that bolts to the head, and then there is a spring from the pipe to that flange to hold the pipe on. Thanx for the help!
Oh, so you did use the stock flange and just welded it to the FMF....interesting.
If I can't find the flange, I'll just do that!
Is the stock one any more restrictive than the FMF one?? It looks like you're using like less than a half inch of the stock pipe, right?

I got it that way, ill have to go look because to me it looked like it was supposed to be that way, i didnt see any weld marks, but ill look again in a minute..... Im confused now LOL 
The part that bolts to your head there is the stock part. It's welded to the FMF part like a half inch or so away from the flange. Normally the FMF flange bolts onto the head and then you place the pipe on there and then hold it on with a spring, and then bolt it to the mount up under the gas tank, and then clamp it in the back and that's what holds it on.
Guess when my new motor gets here next weekend ill see how good it works, but when i unbolted it, it was so solid i thought it was supposed to be that way, then when i looked the second time i could see where they welded it....
I'll post the specs of the flange when I get back form the shop on Saturday. Easy to make if you have to.
Thr flange is 3 3/8 wide, 2.280 tall. The holes are 2.660 apart and .257 diameter. The outlet pipe is 1.509 OD and 1.400 ID. Use 1/4 " material for the flange.
I have the same friggin problem. Has anyone ever used the flange off the stock pipe? Would I have to weld it onto my fmf?
