Nipper Exhaust systems,

Postby cristalair » Sun Jul 15, 2007 11:43 am

Does anyone, anywhere, know of a serviceable exhaust system (complete) for sale, or someone who can make one, or any inspiration at all?!? I have run out of ideas. It is for a Acro 1834 engine installation with Mk3 cowlings. Hope someone can help. David

David,

I have a set of spare pipes for a MKIII and a contractor who can copy them. I am away for a couple of weeks but will help you when I get back.

Hi David,
Herewith some photos of my exhaust system, it really takes the sting out of the VW exhaust note. It was fabricated almost entirely from VW "J" tubes available from just about any exhaust center or German and Swedish. It has tubes with fins inside for the carb heat. The silencers and complete assembly were Nickle plated before use to protect them, so in theory they are plated inside also.

A little help goes a long way.
