Trumpet Removal

[symonab]

Well back to work today - kinda. Dorris is at work therefore whilst beloved car is in bits for major chassis and all things metallic tidy up I thought I may take advantage. One of the to do jobs before getting the car chipped was to shorten the trumpets.

I know this has been talked about but flinkin blip - make sure the partner/wife etc is out when you "just pop the trumpets in the oven to heat up" popped upstairs to check e-mails and went back down. Smoke every where and the poor dogs are shut in the kitchen (with breathing apparatus on (for benefit of RSPCA)).

Well once removed angle grinder will be fired up and I intend to remove 25mm from them. Any opinions on what Loctite to use on re assembly or any genral tips or pointers - before I cut.

Fair point - need to know basis. Dogs appear to be a little greasy and sooted? Oven recirculation fan has funny overheating smell also.

Wash dogs and blame the muddy weather.
Wash the overn re circ fan and blame the Fatty christmas food

Too much washing me thinks!

Sounds like you should've just bought some flared jobs

With what - blood!

On the 400 the trumpets are flared.
