New Exhaust

Post by AndyRo »

Hi folks, wondering if anyone can advise where I can get a new vertical exhaust for my 1964 Super Dexta which is close to the original spec?

I ordered one from Agri Parts, marked up as for a Super Dexta, but I knew as soon as it came it was the wrong size/length. On trying to fit it the thing wouldn't even go into the exhaust manifold. I will now try to return and probably have a fight as to who is paying return postage when it clearly isn't my mistake :?

Try and find a good second hand one, original exhausts are very rare, the original replacement ones are much easier to get.

Try any exhaust/Tyre shop like Kwikfit. They should have a catalogue of standard exhausts. You just need the internal diameter of the Exhaust manifold and dimensions of the length to the silencer and length of silencer etc.

Thanks folks. To be fair to Agri Parts they came back to me and admitted sending a major exhaust rather than a dexta one. They are happy to pay the return postage as it's their mistake and are sending me the correct dexta one.

All's well that ends well :D
