Default Mounting side pipes

My pipes are mounted at the rear similar to Boxheads and at the front the flanges are bolted straight to the heads. with a very lumpy cam they rock and roll with the engine. Only thing to watch is the engine manifold bolts tend to back out but you can tell when this is hapening as you get a loud ticking noise like a loose lifter. I carry a spanner in the boot and nip up the manifold bolts when needed.
Cheers,
Bryan
