I Only Wanted The Wheels.... by 72clubman

Now I've hit a rather large obstacle. Is there a hope in hell of me getting a whole exhaust system into the car with engine in situ?

I've removed the driveshafts, but I'm still struggling, any advice?

So it took a long time, a lot of brute force but i got the exhaust on. I'm so stubborn, I have a newish stainless RC40, but i really don't like it. So chose to subject myself to this just to fit a Janspeed! 

only had to take off the offside hub off, driveshafts, all engine mounts, petrol pump, and the clutch slave cylinder.

Now I just need to work out why the ignition system doesn't work!

So after a week of fighting the car, I have a result.

It's my first experience with a ballast ignition system, so that was a learning curve! solid 185psi across all 4 cylinders which i'm very happy with. The Janspeed exhuast sounds exactly as I wanted, a lovely mellow roughty note. 

Very happy chappy.
