Xflow exhaust
Neil2004 - 29/9/05 at 06:33 PM

I am trying to fit what I believe is a Tiger stainless exhaust system to my Locost which has a 1700 xflow. The problem I am having is the clearance between manifold pipes and the diagonal brace.
1) has anyone fitted this exhaust system, if so how?
2) what clearance would I need between the manifold pipes and diagonal brace to allow for engine movement when running?
3) could I remove the brace and replace it with verticle ones?
Many thanks for any help, regards, Rescued attachment Manifold in car side view.jpg

You may be able to remove the diagonal and replace with an offset 'v' arrangment , or an offset'v' upside down, I think someone has braced it that way... Rescued attachment diag1 jpg.jpg
