'47 9A exhaust

Post by mister bridger »

Hi all, I'm a bit cofused about the exhaust on my '47 9A, which is rather past it's best. The pipe from the manifold to silencer is about 1" diameter and from the silencer back is slightly wider copper tube(!) The only exhaust pipes on Hardwickes are 2" diameter and no silencer is shown at all. What SHOULD I have and where can I get it, including silencer? TIA

I made myself a new one from a straight pipe and a hydraulic tool, one hour ago the first run for a few seconds. The silencer is a straight one, somebody told me from a Ford tractor, but other members maybe know

I used a Ferguson on my Le Mans. Purchased last year.

Thanks folks. Managed to order the right pipes through the SOC, but will need the silencer. Will just have to check the diameters first
