it will be ok, but i"d sand the inside of the down pipe , and the barrel stub, and loosen the main bolt on the casing, then try again. no such thing as "can"t". LEOvince pipes were ok, but you cant get them anymore for some reason. i ran a leovince on a DR 180 kit years ago, went well.

Check for any spot welds on the down tube and clean all the carbon out as well with a small wire brush or a grinding bit on your drill.
If it was me, I would cut the clamp off and use a 'U' clamp. PM with your email if you want a picture of it.
