you can, but it might be tricky trying to get it to line up right

If you have access to a lift and a welder, i'd say go for it!

i like where your heads at but by the time you sell yours and use that towards a new one i think that for the money it would be better to get it done right. if you feel you can cut them to line up nice and avoid exaust leaks then maybe you should go for it.
