    You post pics Gordon, more pics the better always good to see other guys work, i'm just a nutter for paint the "ram" is part of the air opp step for the missis, you can see the air tank (yellow) above the exhaust, had to move that up about 30mm to give it a bit more clearance,

    i do spent a bit under it Alex! but no bugger brings me a cuppa, have to climb out and do it meself, and yup afradi i've chipped the paint a bit

    Another fine Job Ian. You must spend chunks of your life in that pit of yours. Does someone bring you regular cuppas or do you have to clamber out

    Do I see the odd chip on the hammerite??

    started a topic 3"S/Steel exhaust

    3"S/Steel exhaust

    Finished my s/s 3" exhaust, firstly a big thanks to Dave "Webbo" Webster who supply'd me with bits and got the pipe, bends and had the flanges made up, sent me s/s rods, discs, advice etc, would'nt have even attempted this without ya mate
    Right! well as my welding skills aint exactly great and the mig welder i bought on ebay is cr@p i had to use the arc welder and "dab" the weld, this worked out better than i expected and it joined the metal very well, only prob is it dose'nt look too good so i made/cut bands off the 3" pipe to make internal and external sleeves to cover the duff looking weld on the outside and add a bit of strenght on the inside, also made the gaskets to go between the flanges out of a small sheet of lead/fibre gasket i had,
    Done it in stages and the first being from the turbo connection down alongside the engine, this was probably the worst bit as it's bl00dy tight in there, had to junk the original pipe bracket and made one from flat bar and 3" clamp as i've used throughout also i had to "push" the trans fluid pipes in a bit to clear the exhaust, fitting this section was a real "SOD" got to two nuts through the wheel arch but the other needed four socket extensions and uj, had to bang the socket on and in fact it's still on there
    Stage 1 (the front bit)








Working...
