Exhausts

Postby steff » Fri Nov 24, 2006 2:20 pm

Can anyone help with problems on my HC 1159cc exhaust. The car is a project and came to me without an exhaust (I have the engine manifold and exhaust manifold clamp).
A local stainless stell company (owner is an ex Viva man) has put together a good price on a stainless syetm but I need some sizes and pictures from an HC exhaust. I have the dimensions for length of the pipes but need some sizes for the front and back box and if the pipes go in the middle or side of the boxes.
No one near me has an HC so I am a bit stuck.

Cheers

Hi Steff,

I emailed you a couple of weeks ago with sizes of the exhaust boxes on my 1256. I can’t find your reply but just to let you know that I have measured the ones on my 1159 and they are the same as the 1256. The only difference I can find is that the downpipe on the 1159 is a twin pipe wheras the one on the 1256 was single.
I hope this helps.
