Fabricating Flexible Headers

Update: I have ordered 2 feet of 1" stainless steel flexible exhaust tubing from B&B Specialties. I plan to cut off the stock exhaust stacks as suggested by Rooman and attach the tubing. I will post some pics when done. Thanks for all the suggestions.

The 1" ID flexible exhaust tubing is too large. The OD of my exhaust stacks is 7/8". I was hoping I could adapt the 1" ID tubing but that doesn't look likely. I never expected this to be the issue it has become. Unless I can find a solution soon I will have to reluctantly cut holes in the cowl for the 2 exhaust stacks.
