Mr. Pink



Yes, I think the photos I saw were of your car in the paint shop. From memory the caption below refered to a spider or similiar?



Thought the colour combination looked good. Post a photo here of it finished??

The interest shown in the exhaust, was mainly due to the length. Thanks for this information.

My pipes are slightly longer with a 2 1/2 internal perforated pipe. I have added two perforated cones into the end of each pipe.

I found the design for the cones on a site there in the states and had my engineering shop make four up. The perforated cone deadens the sound somewhat and does not restrict the gas flow.

However, I wrapped the inner with fibreglass and sent them off to be coated. They came back fed.

So, I re made them and used steel wool wrapped tightly but this has slowly burnt out.

So it's back to the fibreglass wrap and hand painting the pipes. The only alternative is to have the pipes coated and then put them together with out welds.

My gallery camera has a shot/s of the first set and the last set.

Sorry to bore you with all this but 'dB' levels of noise are becoming an issue here.

Cheers



Thanks again for placing the information and pictures.
