I also prefer this over cutting at the bottom because it makes the can stronger, in case the chassis is handled by the can or if the can is bumped.

that's a very note worthy point,, i will change the way i do things not on these caps considering what your saying.


for the record,, i use aluminum exhaust pipe tape for cars to seal up the cut area, just a tiny skinny band.

the reason i cut low was for future access and repairs though, this way i remove the tape and lift off the can.
