Re: Mod To Stock Mufflers

Thanks for the constructive suggestions - I'll look into the Dynomax line and consider fabbing up a restrictor myself, as we have very few competent muffler shops in this part of the world.

Re: Mod To Stock Mufflers

Re: Mod To Stock Mufflers

Ha, ha - I can understand why you might think that as we're not allowed handguns. But as for rifles and shotguns, so long as we have the right paperwork, we can have almost anything except semi and...

Re: Mod To Stock Mufflers

Many thanks for your kind sentiments! As for the exhausts - if I can't modify the stocker mufflers, I'll leave it 'as is'. Right now, other things have call over my cash resources. Here in the UK we...

The new alternator did fix the problem, however, when it arrived, there was not a sign of a maker's name, number, or anything on it - even the...

Re: Hub bearings?

Many thanks for taking the trouble to reply - it's very helpful to know that the hub is the same as on the L98 cars! :) Sadly, the play in my wheel is close to the limit allowed by the UK 'MOT' - the...
