HELP PLEASE - Need an exhaust made
Discussion
Hi All,
1st post here and it a "HELP" type one !
I have a 4.5 Rover V8 Built by John Eales, I now need an exhaust making for it from the manifold base. I have a set of JED Big Bore Manifolds to suit the porting on the heads, the rest needs to be done. I have all the secondary and tech bits JE has advised I have, but I am stumped as to who to use ?
I am based near Guildford Surrey, is there anyone that knows of a decent exhaust fabricator nearby, most if not all seem to be the far ends of the country to me ?
The closer the better, recomendation is key and valueable, equally anyone nearby I should aviod like the plaque ?
Fingers crossed you can help, much appreactied if you can

Yep I do 99% of my own fabrication, Roll cages winch bumpers and other stuff, prob is full mandrel benders are too expensive, and radial not much less, the exhaust is complex that I am looking for and don't really fancy trying assorted bends and welding up, I am happy to pay for once - but wnat a proper job
re my spelling its a combo of poor typing and dxyslexia thanks very much
Was hoping for a better reply to a 1st post asking for help

Hi both
Thanks for the links, Simpson do seem to have a good repuation, in fact I have had nothing but good news on them so far both here and elsewhere.
Whilst not as close to me as I would like, its not too far, more the ag factor of taking it there just for a quote etc, I was also told about blueflame, and thats out of the question from the fuel bill alone :LOL:
Thansk for the above so far anymore for anymore ?
I never expected this to be cheap, then again whats ever cheap on a tuned V8 ?

Not cheap, but you get what you pay for.
