Looks nice

The primaries look pretty long in conparison to the secondaries, Is that what a tuned exhaust should look like?

the secondaries should be 1/3-1/2 the length of the primaries.

Ned, where did you get the exhaust made?

Are you using throttle bodies and ecu as I can see a boss for an O2 sensor?
Nice bit of work by the way especially the tigged collector

Right, answers to questions so far..

Exhaust was made by Simpsons Race exhausts - http://www.simpsonraceexhausts.com/ - not cheap, but one of, if not the best imho.

Primary length is 29" and secondaries length is 10"

Silencer measures 28" x 7" with 2 3/4" outlet

The exhaust is based on the dimensions of an SBD dyno proven exhaust system, but the main difference being mine is bonnet rather than low side exit.

I am going to be running direct to head throttle bodies - so need the o2 sensor for mapping the dta ecu.

I hope to be wired by mid april, so have the engine running by the end of april, rolling road and ecu mapping in may and on the road or track shakedown by june.

Ned.

Oh, and I finished my re-flanged exhaust last night!

EDIT: Somehow it doesn't look *quite* as nice as that though.
Can't think why!
