I haven't seen those before, they look quite cunning! May end up switching to those when I do the final install of the exhaust.

I need to modify the cat mount, either rounding and covering the joint or cutting off the current mount, rotating the band and rewelding it so the joint is hidden behind the can.

As for the roll bar, I had the same cunning idea as you. Working off the pictures of mine (as i was in Reading) I reckoned it could be moved outwards by about the radius per side. Unfortunately I then managed to lift the wrong dimension off the drawing... It is now slightly wider than the chassis (about 1.17m).

May be good for anyone building a 442 or similar, but little to no use for anyone building a standard width car.

The disturbing thing is that I'm a mechanical engineer and read drawings most days at work... my only defence is that I was knackered and in a hurry!
