OK, Skip B brought up the exhaust collector problem. His is build #100, mine is build #139.

I cannot have mods done locally, my guys don't have a clew what you are talking about.

Mine spews exhaust soot into the engine compartment any time the engine is running. It's a direct exhaust leak, under pressure.

The spring-loaded header/sidepipe connectors don't work.

You KNEW that when you built the car and delivered it.

I have not yet seen a "fix" that I can afford or deal with.

I even tried cramming steel wool down into the joint and clamping it with a giant hose clamp. Didn't work.

Historically, BackDraft does not return my Emails or phone calls to Miami.

Fault me if you can, I have the docs.
