I've just had all the parts out on the floor and it looks like the brackets they gave me will be suitable. > Phillip > 76 Sptifire 1500 ...

Heh, well I KNOW there won't be a problem under the car, as the pipes are practically falling off the car! The manifold studs may be more of an issue though... I have a new four-branch manifold too, and I'm hoping that I'll figure a way to get that on the car wil a minimum of faffing. I guess trying to skip the "partially drain the cooling system" stage of removing the inlet manifold is a good way to make your project last twice as long... > Putting the new one on was fairly easy, on difficulty was in getting used to > the exhaust compound ... ah! this is what I'm missing.

If it takes longer then I'll give it two hours then stop work, clean up and go in the ford (patooey!) > Martin > '63 Spit4 *** http://www.team.net/the-local *** Your messages not reaching the list?
