[Sunbeam Talbot Email List] Exhaust

[cotalymepond at aol.com]

It is unclear from your letter wether you're Hot-Rodding or  Restoring your 
car.
Original spec exhaust systems in Stainless Steel are available from the  
Bamforths.
These come with all the proper bends and fit as originally designed.

Thanks for the article. There is a  point to a "tuned" exhaust, but there 
is a minimal size from which if the  exhaust is sized down from it will not 
perform as well as it gets restrictive.  Also when the bends and convolutions 
it undergoes, as it reaches the rear end  of the car, are too acute then 
that too will restrict the exhaust as well.  Right now the exhaust to the rear 
is too restrictive. If I go to a side  exhaust then I agree that larger is 
not necessarily better if not properly  sized. I was hoping that there might 
be a way to run the exhaust to the rear  in a more straight forward way 
without hanging it down under the frame and  rear axle.

Before you change the  exhaust diameter, consider the fact that a large 
pipe reduces velocity and may  actually cause a negative effect.

>From  this, I conclude that a good designed free flowing silencer/muffler 
will yield  more HP than efforts to increase pipe size. 
This presumes that the in situ  system is not undersized.

Hi Ricardo,my experiance,with my  Works prepared  Alpine,with the exhaust 
out the side,was being a RHD  car was not the fumes but  the constant noise 
in your right ear,quite  annoying,you will not have that  problem being LHD. 
if you want larger  pipes take it out the side. Just check  the law, if your 
exhaust does  come out the side, it will be pointing  towards your kerb 
side, there  used to be a regulation preventing this,not sure  about today's  
rules,good luck Mal Clark.

Hi,

There seem to be two choices for  the  exhaust. Run it out the side just in 
front of the rear wheel, or  run it out  the back. If I run it out the side 
I can use a large  diameter exhaust pipe  but then the fumes can be 
annoying when in  slow traffic., If I run the  exhaust out the back the clearances 
are  terrible and I will end up using a  smaller diameter pipe, which will  
cut down on hp. Is there someway to run a  larger pipe out the rear  without 
exposing the exhaust system when looking at  the car from the  side??

Also, I’m looking for a bottom rear body  panel which  fits under the rear 
bumper (part # H92694 same as saloon and  conv.  Coupe)

Thanks,
Ricardo
