    Default Dual Exhaust

    I was going over some old mags the other day and noticed a couple of Vk's with Dual exhausts (one on either side of the fuel tank) has anyone done this conversion or does anyone know how to do this. If possible id rather keep the fuel tank out of the boot.

    cheers.

    DO NOT run an exhaust pipe out the drivers side of your car witht he standard tank in it. If the breather hoses fail & fuel leaks out onto the hot exhaust you could have as marvin would as "an earth shattering KA BOOM!"

    You basically have to run a fuel cell in boot before you should concider running a pipe out the drivers side.

    Only way is have a pipe that runs at the back of the fuel tank. But there isn't much room between the fuel tank and the back of a VB-VK.
    Either that or the stock duel zorst layout for the 5 litre VB-VKs on the left hand side of the car(the normal spot for a zorst).

    just put a fuel cell in it and have your pipes out each side.I have but then you have to cut the rear bar to make it look symmetrical.Which i havent done yet
