Timco...
Make sure you have the correct pipe for each side - they are different lengths.
When I fitted mine a couple of years ago, I thought my pipes where too long and was ready to send them back.
The trick is to uncouple the other end of the pipe (flange) and fit the pipe into the muffler first, then the flange end second. After fitting it all up, I think I had about a 1/4" gap @ the flange which pulled up easily when tightening the bolts.
Your plug bolts should really be stainless not black steel (and obviously as short as possible so as not to block the gas flow), otherwise they will corrode badly in the pipes.....
