PLUS 8 EXHAUST 1972 TO 1976
by Lorne Goldman & John Worrall
The 1972 original system is better than the first system used from
1968-1972. Of course, the cast manifolds still crack and rust and it is
still limited by a single pipe and crossover problems but is easier
to fit the excellent later (post 1976) 4 branch manifolds and
twin system. Of course , the valances have to be cut for the downpipes to exit
and the joint is very much on the valance of these narrow cars so the
hole is not small. Ideally it would be good if it could be done with
the wings and valences removed to make it is easier to flange the latter for
strength once it is marked out on the vehicle before the removal. The centre steering column should also be removed for ease. Very little room to work otherwise. It
also muchly upgraded the silencer to a longer, more freer flowing affair
modeled after Chris Lawrence's on the LeMans' winning TOK 458.
These models also have an easy-to-fit the dual Performance System ability that people swear by since! It has withstood the test of time.
