Iv got a janspeed type on mine dating back to the 80's and its getting to the point of needing replacment. I did phone janspeed and get ready for the price..............£500 per unit plus 1500 to set the jig up! Oh and thats plus vat.....

What about asking GES in Devon how much they would charge for a stainless version. They would use your steel one as a model. We recently sent them an O series front section and they made up a stainless one in 24 hours.

Could be worth a go Chris,il contact them tomorrow. Cheers

Failing that,how much modification to a mgb do you think?

Balmy,would you be interested in one if the price is right? Anyone else for that matter?

I fitted an MGB one to SLK. All I did was bend up the pipe to go in line with the Marina body.

Arr thats sounds good then,do they not sit a bit low and the fuel pump gets in the way?

Fitted electronic pump on the rear heal board. Didn't go that low if I recall rightly..

I did the same as Ben on my 1.8. If they made them about 25mm shorter on the downpipes, they would be perfect.

To miss the mechanical fuel pump you need a sharp angle on the front pipe like the one in the picture.

Found this of SLK's old one:

Made blanking plate:

Welded a piece on the end and then jacked it up when warm (this is before I jacked it up)
