It does take a little messing about Andy but it does stay in place and tends to dry out after a while,the one I put on Jims is no probs and done the way described.

And I used jubilee clips to hold it,not pretty but practical.

If at first you dont succeed,avoid skydiving...

No parachute require to freefall,only if you want to do it twice.

Top tips there Paul

Going to be needing some exhaust wrap to hide the ugly welds on my manifold

That'll teach me for trying to do a job when fabricators block has set in, 2 days after I made a hash of the job, It was plain as day how I could have done the job better

You got me Red handed Paul

Just wished I managed to get the primarys the same length/shape & thought bandage would hide it up a little

Moral of the story, if the jobs not going right, walk away & leave it for another day
