GD Exhaust leak is drivin me crazy!!
So I did my clutch yesterday, get everything back together and tighter than it was when I took it off and its leaking HORRIBLY bad, so I get under the car and tighten the pipe more and more on the headers, well it quiets down alot but is still leaking from the passenger header, I just don't get it, there are no cracks or anything but it is sounding like serious ass and I get alot of stares from the old neighbors 
My question is, what could I do to make it stop leaking until I can throw some cash together to get me a new h-pipe?

Hi temp RTV Jason, or some JB weld. Its a nasty fix but works.

Red may not hold up to the heat. Copper will. Also, they sell thin sheets of an aluminum foil at auto parts stores. You take the joint loose and put some of that foil around it then tighten it back down. It will take up some of the small inperfections and hopefully seal it better.
oh it's definitely his hpipe. I don't know if someone made that rusty pos or just cut up a good one and then welded it in a few places (including jb weld it looks like).
Don't worry, Jason, when we get a little time, we'll drop it and try it a few times and find the "spot" where it doesn't leak too bad. until then, patience my friend!!
Still the best idea to get a new one!! that thing is horrible, he ain't kiddin' folks!!!
