Exhaust Collector
Hi all. Any tips for getting the headers into the collector? Unbelievably tight. Just can't get them in.

Interference fit?
Can you put the inner bit in the freezer to try and get the dimension to contract a fraction?
Put the outer bit in the oven to get the dimension to expand a fraction?
Take care holding hot metal obviously and get the two bits together quick so as not to lose the temperature affect.

Or just gently heat up the female part with a torch.
