Looks tight with a 2wd exh manifold , good news it fits as I'm not changing mine to a 4wd one when the time comes.

Pig,
did you have to "persuede" the inner wing to get the manifold in there?

mint rs by the way

Looking good piggy wiggy, I do love an x pack!

I was gonna do another x pack myself but funds meant I had to sell

the shell.

Was gonna get john cross to make a carbon fibre kit and pop rivet it

on to a painted moonstone body with anthracite rims ,mmmmmm!
