408 exhaust questions

[dwomby]

Nice looking headers there, Roger. Maybe one day on mine.

I am interested in the addition of a 3rd mount at the front on cars later than mine. My two exhaust hangers are rigid and I thought that odd. I'd expect rubber in there somewhere. So I am intrigued by the mount you picture because it looks as though it holds the exhaust pipe rigidly in relation to the chassis. Am I seeing that correctly? or is the upper end of the frame on the transmission? Where is there any flex in your setup?
