Bob, My exhaust used to leak, but I figured out that this is usually due to the clamp. I went to using a new clamp even if the old one looks fairly good. I used a floor jack to push the exhaust pipe up against the manifold and looked at and felt around the joint to make sure that it is lining up well. If it doesn't, the pipe needs to be moved around or bent. Mine lined up faily well. I then installed the clamp while the jack still held up the pipe. No leaks. I have since changed to the later 1275 setup, it has a tiny leak too BTW. Ulix __/__,__ .......................................................... (_o____o_).... '67 Sprite |
