  1. Hi my car had been fitted with a fast road cam .The guys brother fitted it I want to change it back to stock as it’s an auto so causes problems with a steady idle and a bit of a waste in a auto 

    Where is the best place to get one or re profile the old one ?? 

    Thanks guys

    if you replace the tuds or do as many do like rob suggested  drill thro and use a bolt  but always use proper brass nuts then they wont seize 

    like   https://www.jamespaddock.co.uk/brass-nut-exhaust-downpipe-mk1-3   or similar 

    you can get the exhaust manifold off and leave the inlet and carbs in place  

    access to all nuts is a fiddle  but its possible

    Ok Pete thanks will do that I think will-let you know how it goes 😳

  3. It’s the 3 bolts on bottom of manifold to first part of the down pipe .He heated them all up and the first one broke will have a look at the other two 

    just loosen them off in situ or take the carbs etc off ??

    He said that it is a pain in the arse and don’t have enough time to sort these out as they are filled booked weeks and weeks ahead and only a small area for parking in the yard 

  4. Hi have a new exhaust being fitted but the nut/thread has sheared on one of the mountings so car was returned to me 😡

    i need to get this apart then the downpioe can be replaced is there a easy way or carbs off ,exhaust manifold off with down pipe attached then drill out and replace with stainless bolts 

    thanks for any help guys
