Mick's 70 Lowlight

Got some goodies in the post today. My sidewinder exhaust arrived from Classic Vee Dub. The quality is not bad, in fact it's pretty darn good when you consider it was only $430!!! It's a 1 1/2" early-bay stainless steel system that ends in a 2 1/4" muffler. The muffler looks massive, hopefully it doesn't need modding to fit. The collector is a reasonable length and should flow better than the typical bell shaped collector you see on most cheapo exhausts which was my main reason for choosing this style of system. Sure it's not a CSP Python, but then it didn't cost me the wrong side of $1500.

I'd say that the quality and finish is not quite up to the same as the Vintage Speed system I had previously fitted to the bus but then it's not really too bad either. There's a little bit of cleaning up to do inside the collector but nothing that 10 minutes and a die grinder could not sort out. Also need to weld an O2 bung in there for the AFR Sensor and check that my J-Pipes will fit.

Really looking forwards to getting this build together and seeing how everything works together.
