Wanted Blacktop Exhaust Headers / System
Fandango - 19/1/16 at 08:55 AM

Hi all.

We hope to be putting the Blacktop in the Locost very soon.

We are looking for an exhaust system for this, quite happy to buy seperate downpipes / collector / box, whatever.

We also need inlet manifold to suit R1 carbs.

Anyone here got anything?

Cheers Carl

Enough bits to cut - tack - and get stainless custom header ...

I have a Zetec manifold and a silencer available. You'll need a collector to connect the two together. I believe that the manifold is from a GBS Zero, the silencer is polished stainless and in very good condition. I would £120 for the pair and would send by courier....? Let me know if you want any pictures etc.
Cheers,

Still looking, has anyone here got anything?

If its on a budget and you can do some fabrication your self then you could do a lot worse than an st170 exhaust manifold. I am not a fan of using the inlet but the exhaust is good unless you want an over the top rail exit.

Cheers for that.

Will have a look into ST170 parts.

If any one can confirm that the newer GDI engine exhaust manifolds fit the zetecs, then I may have something for you.

I'm none the wiser whether they do or not... But I do have a couple of tubular manifolds that I picked up a while back.

This is one I did

That looks just the job, and simple enough for our tame fabricator!

Slightly different by another builder.
