Stripping down the 8 port I found out where the exhaust was blowing - cracks in the exhaust manifold Edited by Neil8p on 17th Aug, 2005. |

I'd say just normal cracks from the engine moving about, although the exhaust wrap looks to have made the corrosion to the pipe work a bit worse.

Id does indeed look like the exhaust wrap has made things worse. This is of no surprise really. On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:

exhaust wrap kills rolled steel, as its made of loads of layers all melted and rolled together at high temps.
always looking for them bigger bunches of bannanas |

I agree with Jimster on this... You could get a titanium jobbie made for that price... On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:

i would get it sandblasted (lightly) weld it up and then get it etched. i would also check the engine steadys and bushes as the split in the v is a sure sign of too much engine movement, engine rocking on its mounts. i have done the above on loads of lcbs with success, i never wrap them for the reasons disclosed.........just in case my 2 peneth was worth anything to ya
