Steve was looking into this and worked out a combination of the Allard and SFS would be the best solution

Think it came to about £450 mind  :lipsrsealed:

Sod that think i will just get the Allard kit at the end of the month after payday.. and my mrs's dad is a welder so if i have to cut and shut pipes im all good.. but tbh for like £300 for a few pipes you tihnk they could have mastered the design to fit !

Where would the fun be if the kit fitted perfectly?  :grin: :grin:  You can't expect to fit something without at least a bruised knuckle or several  :laugh:

Stud extractors
