I am trying to do a pressure vac test on one of my ms880's and can't get the exhaust side blocked because of the clamp on muffler. It does not allow for a proper seal using the conventional method with a bolt on muffler. Is there a plate or adapter that I can buy for this? There must be a way to do it!! thanks for any advice!
 
With this and tighten with a puller or small clamps.
You can make a similar flange at home, material, aluminum / steel, 2-4mm thick rubber, glue.

thank you 1289. Just what I needed!
I'm better at using saws than fixing them!
