Wow, talk about resurrecting the dead!

In any case, if the u-joint is out then can't you get a set of vice grips on them? You are going to need new bolts anyway.

I would let them sit overnight...

Short of taking a torch to the pipes I don't think you can tweak them without denting the pipes. I did try applying a good bit of force (short of denting them) with no effect. Mine are coated so...

Personally I'd go with the solid mounts without hesitation for a stout motor.

If you are running side pipes you probably are not terribly concerned with having a smooth/quiet ride.

It's square.. and yes it's had a rough life.
