No real progress to report as still waiting for a solution to the exhaust manifold problem.
Looks like its a faulty set of bent pipes and may get a replacement.

Exhaust is sorted! Well it will be!
My local chap has sorted it by cutting off the flanges to the head and turning it and welding back on.
Just brought it home and checked it and all is OK.
So back to him in the morning to get it fully welded up and finished off!

He has done me a great job sorting the manifold.

Wrapped the manifold yet?  Make sure the wrap is wet - keeps the dust down and it'll tighten up as it dries.  Also wrap from the bottom up.... but you probably knew all that already, right?

I certainly wouldn't go mucking about with the steering vs the exhaust!
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.
