Righto everyone.

Im just wondering, the people that have had clearance issues with exhaust of a large diameter, whether the issue was with the body or with the pot-joint itself?

If it was with the body is it where the tunnel meets the toe board?

How much extra clearance would you say you needed and for what exhaust diameter?


The reason i ask is becuase im at the point where i can chop the body around and so i would rather increase clearance now than find i want/need to do it later on.

Thank you, James.

If your engine is solid, you only need about 5mm clearence.
