Heat stove connection for headers.

"One test is worth a thousand expert opinions."
Does anyone have any ideas on how to add a heat stove connection to a header tube?
I just need a short 1.75" OD stainless steel stub to connect the flexible aluminum tube
to the air cleaner.
 
to fabricate an effective heat sink, you could simply use a couple hose clamps,

and put a 12"-18" section of the appropriate size stainless steel tube, (bent to the ideal shape )

or what many people do, is clamp a 36" section of metal flex tube in place next to the headers

in an inconspicuous location , clamped to the existing header tubes
where it will efficiently adsorb and transfer heat to the air traveling through it.

here in west palm beach, county ,florida winter tends to last 36-48 hours of miserable cold
(it drops into the, low 40s-to- high 30s every other year or so for a day or so) so its not a big issue
