Indy chassis measurements - help please
Paul TigerB6 - 8/3/07 at 08:15 AM

Morning all,
Just after some help in working out if I can fit an MK exhaust manifold into my car (Tiger B6) please. While I can position the engine where I want it I need to work out if the angle will be correct down the side of the car so just need to calculate the angle at which the exhaust will point out (does that make sense??)
Could someone please measure their Indy chassis for me please. Easiest may i can think of is to measure straight across the chassis at two points a fixed distance apart. I can then calculate the angle and compare it to my Tiger chassis.
If someone could send me the two measurements across the car and the distance between the two measuring points then i'll get my calculator out.

Cheers
Paul

I bought an R1 exhaust off ebay from Martin for my mac1.

I had to bolt up the exhaust to the motor on the bench and then heat up with a pepper pot and bend to the correct angle.

Fits like a glove now. Spot on.

Now that sounds like a plan then if it doesnt fit straight away. Do you happen to have a link to MK's ebay shop at all?? Cant find it at the moment.

Cheers

Paul, MK doesn't have an e-bay shop. It's quite rare these days that MK sells anything on e-bay. You can however contact him here

Thanks for the responses guys. Will email Martin and check on availabilty.
Was looking at a nice ZX10R turbo that MK Sportscars are building at the moment. Also a supercharged GSXR1000!! Drove almost right past MK engineering I just realised from the motorway!!! LOL
