what method is the best for securing the silencer to the chassic. david

If you weld it on, it shouldn't come off!
However, it may well crack the welds after a while, so you'd probably be better off mounting it with a couple of silencer bands to a couple of those rubber insulators. They have independant threaded studs poking out each end, so you can stick one through a bracket on the chassis, and the other stud through the hole in the band.
Industrial supplies outlets are the typical source.

I went to an exhaust fitters and routed through their rubber mounting brackets till I found one for the job! I have an MK exhaust with the small tab welded on the end of the silencer.
