Nice to see the sun today, and first time i've driven the new weapon with the top off.... What a laugh, what a noise!

However is does multiply the effect of a slightly leaky manifold.... clearly heard at small throttle openings.

The question is > Is this really a massive job? How much would a TVR specialist charge to change them rather than the faff of losing many layers of skin, and many hours of graft in an upside down position?

Is it really worth doing when the leak isn't really that big? Front 2 cylinders on off side?

Or considering the leak is only on the off side with the most space around them, is it worth just giving it a go?

Hope you all enjoyed the sun today too.....

As usual, the wealth of knowledge here is so useful..

Thanks all,

For the sake of mucking about, waiting for dry weather etc etc, for £100-150 /Sounds like a bargain to me..

Although that cash would give me another 10-20 minutes of blapping through the countryside... ;-)
