catalytic converter leak?
I installed a direct fit catalytic converter and muffler. The muffler sealed good with the clamp, but I am getting some exhaust leaking from where the pipe from the engine goes into the catalytic converter.
I could have it welded, but what if I ever have to take it apart?
Any suggestions?

I checked Advance Auto and Autozone, but neither one carried the 2.25" one that I need. I did find them online though, so I will have to order one I guess.

dumb question...did you buy a new exhaust gasket for the cat?
unless the flanges are REALLY damaged, a good lead type gasket should seal up just about anything.

I got a 2.25" Band clamp at summit racing. There is a still a slight leak, but it will work until I can find someone to weld it for me.
