Extractors are pretty much anything that isn't the standard one piece cast inlet / exhaust manifold. You can tell the standard manifold because the exhaust pipe will start right up near the carbs where as with extractors the single exhaust pipe will start down behind the engine / under the car. |

So if the three pipes join to one pretty much straight away then I don't have em |

exactly, but you can have 3 into 1 extractors which join together at the same point as well, but they join 1/2 way down the back of the engine. |

If you go onto the minisport or minispares websites, they have some good pics of the Extractors they sell. As nick said, if yours look like Nick described, or like in the pictures on the site, then you will have extractors. if not, you don't (more than likely). KB |

Even simpler is looking at the steel. If it is smooth and you can see welding, then it is extractors, but a stock exhaust manifold will be sand cast finished and look a little like your engine block. |

they will look like this or close too this... these are two piece types from link Brownrigg's..but most are the same...some will be in three pieces ie....the bend at the end at the collector piece will be seperate to aid installation... 
and the 3 piece type..

Hi everyone well I think I do have 3 into 1 extractors well the 3 pipes join into 1 about half way down the back of the engine. Now I am just wondering what sort would be best if I was to put a new exhuast system through it |
