Manifold gaskets a possibility? They tick under load and when the engine is warm

Enjoy the new toy

I believe Rob bought a Chim cos they are two a penny and obviously cheaper than a Griff, and being less exclusive, if he bins it into the armco it matters little as there are plenty left, he also can sell on the unused hard top, so a win win.

Cracked manifold possibly?
