Looks as if you have made some good progress there :) :cool:

The exhaust manifold looks to be well thought out & ballanced ;)

I have some way to go before I get to that stage :eek:

Looking good Tilly, but photos don't do it justice! Having seen it in the flesh, there is some very neat work there.
Look forward to us going a spin when I get back (well in at least 1)
All - BECs are the future lol!!

I was toying with the idea of buying u bend and 90 degree bends to do my exhaust (when i get that far:rolleyes: )

But wasnt sure how it would look :confused:

But the answer to that is in your picture................. absolutely superb!

Nice aluminium work on the rear end too.

Looking lovely Tilly - so where are the vids of the test run :p

That is gonna be one stunning car.

Another place to try for exahust bends is OJZ engineering. I've use them beofre and the prices are quite reasonable -
