Markboston Posted September 12, 2018 Report Share Posted September 12, 2018 Dear Experienced and Knowledgeable, Following my success with very tangled PI problems solved from advices gratefully learned from the Forum, I have now another concerning the car's exhaust. It is fitted with a stainless 6-2-1 arrangement at the manifold end and a mild steel SINGLE long pipe -about 2"o.d. - to a transverse end box. This mild steel rear box is now totally blown.. Actually I went and bought a correct (two-inlet) box from Rimmers before realizing that it cannot fit. There is a single-inlet rear box listed by Rimmer made for the TR5, which it appears could be a replacement, but I do not know if this would be correct enough. I would value members' opinions. There is a custom exhaust firm fairly near to me in Hastings and I think they could make something up, if thought necessary. It is a shame to have the car off the road for days over such a slight matter of course! Many thanks in advance. Mark. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
colin3511 Posted September 12, 2018 Report Share Posted September 12, 2018 Mark, The single pipe back box is there so you can have a more standard looking twin tail pipe. set up. I have the single pipe and have swapped between the single and dual pipe back box. Should be interchangeable with what you have....hopefully. Colin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Prefect Posted September 12, 2018 Report Share Posted September 12, 2018 Check out a Phoenix back box. They make optional twin in or single in to suit standard manifold or 6/3/1. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
