Manifold Advice
Been busy making an exhaust manifold, my plan is to use spring & eye retainers on the 4 pipes into the collector. Am I better off hard mounting
the collector to the chassis, or arranging it on a rubber bobbin type thing ?
Do I need to soft mount all of the system on bobbins for the vibration etc ? exhaust virgin....
Cheers

Can you hang the collector off the engine?
So manifold and collector move as one, is your engine hard mounted or on av mounts?

Personally I would rubber mount everything to reduce vibration and reduce stress.
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!
Please read my ring story:

Me too! Or fit a small flexy in the system.

I thought of either a bobbin mounted to the chassis and then u clamped round the exit side of the collector, what I might do now is fit a flexi after
the collector aswell as the bobbin.
cheers guys
