I have decided after 40 years and 3 car builds that simple is best....saves on the grey hairs!!

I just coppied pics from build diarys, but you do have to apply a lot of Britishness to it, to get it bend neatly,I also agree that simple is best, Its always suprises me the many and varied ways that builders get the same job done, And thats what its all about eh?

you have to go even tighter when you've got 8" rear drums. doing it donut's way introduced flexi fouling issues in mine.

Indykid, just wanted to ask in case I'm getting myopic in my old age - where's the support between the rigid and flex pipe?
You can't leave it unsupported or it will vibrate the rigid pipe to death. Cheers, Pewe.
