This picture may help. The pipe has a standard round hanger around it. The bolt through that hanger fastens to a strap, which is "L" shaped and the other end, which has a 90 degree bend, fastens to the bolt on the clutch housing:

I hope that the tail pipe  is correct. The one that I got is wrong. If you look at the muffler clap, it's being pushed to the outside frame rail and that clap cannot be tightened. The rear hanger is way off making the tail pipe close to the center of the car. I called John and all he wanted to do is argue with me. I'm very disappointed. I'll add more pictures so you can see my original.

My rear pipe was in two pieces and i twisted them around until the pipe location was correct . Maybe all you have to do is play around with it a bit . Mine turn out to look like your ogiginal .

The tail pipe that I received was in two pieces and there was no way it could be turned to make it work. The guy from Klassic told me to cut my original in 2 pieces and send it to him, ( That's not happening) When this started months ago He guaranteed me to would fit, so I'm sending this crap back to him. I'm done with them.
