hi all,
i am comming to the stage where
my engine is about to be bolted together
(being done by russell engineering) and
i need to by the entire exhaust system
(mufler, pipe and extractors) and was
wondering where the best place to go and
buy all these things is and what i sould get..
eng spec:
- 1293cc (1100s motor)
- kent 266 cam
- Single 1"3/4 carb
- mini spares 1"3/4 competion manifold
- 12g940 head

any feed back would be appreciated.

thanks
Chris

regarding to LCB 3 into 1 I probebly go to karcraft or Padstow check with Russell and see if he has a prefered or can surply..never know.
The rest at the stage Karcraft do have RC40 under $200 I think.
Other wise down the road from you on Parra road at the bottom of the hill after Rick Domilian I think they are called Hypo Exhaust. He does a lot of work on high performans 4's. I have had the Alfa in thier a number of time and has been well priced and happy to help when I have bottomed out again on spead humps.
He use to race mini's some time back..dropin and see what you think.
I travel from the Hills for work and he's close to you

I think that the exhaust place on Parra Road is Hi-Tech Mufflers.

Good mob. I dont know about cheap, but they do some nice fabrication work.

If you are just after piping etc, Midas arent all that bad providing that you know exactly what you want. The Midas at Haberfield on Parramatta Road have done heaps of Minis. I have seen lots go through their gates. They fabricated the straight through exhaust on Mo and he sounds great... their number is 9797 7666.

P.s. Was good to meet you and your girl yesterday arvo..!!!! Good luck with getting her on the road soon.

Hi Tech thats them.. ..Hypo....

thanks guys, i know the place, is that where you
got yours done marcello??

Yeah the guys at Midas done mine.



Cheap..!!! AND good result. You can hear Mo a mile away now.

yeah mate good to meet you too! good to have another
mini nut around my area as apposed to all the others
in the "hills district"

Buy my near new 'pea shooter' from me Chris....it needs a new home!

yeah JAM im sure it will flow heaps good, how much you
want for it.....

But seriously i was told janspeed lcb's are
good, any more ideas..?? how much of a difference
is there in extractors, do you get different sizes or are
they a standard size usually. (in my ignorance i know nothing..)

I'll chuck in the 'super restrictive' inlet/zorst manifold to sweeten the deal....

cant refuse a dela like that.....

Chris,
Off the shelf ones, I think Maniflow are best. And they are better made than most of the Oz ones. But watch they don't foul the intake manifold in the middle.... another reason I run a Dellorto!

thanks doc, any suggestions for the
best/cheapest place to get them.....

Karcraft....
For a muffler I still reckon RC40 is best, Lukey straight thru is not bad either. We've got 1 car with each.
BTW you don't need an LCB on a 998, freeflow one is fine and less likely to leak.
