THE FINAL CHAPTER:
So we have discussed the topic at great length.
These are my findings:
1) I wrapped the manifold and down pipes with 58' of exhaust wrap..this went a long way to diminish the inflow of hydrocarbons into the cockpit with the roof off.
2) Today I spent 2 hours with a very clever fabricator in Leeds who removed the original rear pipe and replaced it with a 90 degree stainless steel rolled tip outlet.
This juts out into the airstream just infront of the rear wheel and hey presto no more fumes in the cockpit.
Check out the second picture to see how he angled the pipe.
It gives a much deeper exhaust note without being annoying..also for some reason I can get it to pop and bang at will !!!
Nice job ...well pleased and can easily be put back to oe if required.


I'll pipe down now...I'm exhausted with this topic!!!
