How long are the tail pipes? When we had TRS and Gil exhaust, we would bolt the tail pipe on a big steel work bench, slip a pipe in the tail pipe, and then bend/tweak the pipe to fit (just vertical) Did this numerous times without any cracks or problems.

What if you used some washers between the tails and manifold to determine exactly what the diminsions the wedges need to be; it may vary by pipe. I pretty sure I can (or OSO ) find a machine shop that can make what you will need.
