The Camaro Club (UK)

I'd have thought you'd have had a go at making that system yourself . Think it through, it's not difficult as you might think. You can buy mandrel bent bends & straight tube in the size you need. It's just a case of measuring, cutting & welding really

cheers...Nige

I was thinking that at first and the only thing putting me off is the whole bend over the axle part. Didn't realise you could get this done though. do you know anyplaces off the top of your head that can do this?

These guys look like they do a lot of good exhaust components:

X pipes, Flexi pipes, flange size adapters and cut lengths. Don't appear to do any mendrel bent pipes to order though.

As a question, is there much of a difference welding stainless steel? Could you use a standard MIG welder for this?

p.s i am waiting on one part to come through the post, this should mean i can start the engine on the weekend. I will record it.. bear in mind it only has the manifold on, not even downpipes

If only you'd managed to get to the swap meet in Essex on sunday, you'd have found people selling exhaust tubes/bends & x pipes there.

You can weld stainless with a MIG, but obviously you need to fit a spool of stainless wire I think Halfrauds sell it on small rolls.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

I was so gonna go as well knew a few people that went and could have met up with some of the people here too. not a happy bunny

Thanks for the tip, there's actually a big welding place in slough trading estate so will pick up a spool from them. not looking forward to feeding the wire into the welder, that's always an hour killer

I tried to get a recording today after staring the Camaro for the first time in 6 months, but the microphone on my camera is shite !!! What's a good thing to record with ?

you can get something like a Zoom H1

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003 ... V0EF8ZN0FN

Probably more than you wana spend though at £75. I've got the Zoom H4 which is use for recording sound effects and that's been good enough for film use, but that's abut £230.

Maybe look into a digital dictaphone? make sure it's stereo though, you should be able to get one for about £25ish.

I'll post up a vid with the sound of the digicam mic vs. the Zoom H4 next weekend.

In the meantime, i just started my camaro after 13 months
