After Tony collected the exhaust for our 1979 Ferrari 400 GT, Jonn began working on fitting it to the car. Here are his notes:

Start preparing new exhaust. Remove old downpipes and pass pipes. Heat and cut pipes to remove bypass pipes fully. Clean flanges and mating surfaces. Found one front section pipe corroded and holes. Clean and prep for welding.

Continue with exhaust. Repeat procedure for other side silencers. Weld small,bypass back securely to silencer so able to remove remainder of old pipe. Clean and weld small pipe. Find sealing rings and exhaust gasket material from stock that will do the job.

Continue exhaust. Weld repair 1 nearside front pipe and dress weld. Mount both sets of silencers to each side and hang on mounts. Apply sealer to nearside rings and tighten both nearside front flanges.
