i've only had four branches snap and break weilds when its not had this joint on them, never had to modify and put a flexi section on. had a manifold around 10 years back without this joint and it snaped in less than 12 months, but since then we always fit a rear poly engine mount
I recognise that picture! :wink:
Are you saying you don't use a flexi section if the manifold has the bolt/spring section pictured? I have just got a flexi section to fit with the above manifold just to be on the safe side (I have a poly rear engine mount too)…
How tight are you supposed to do the bolts up? I guess the less tight you do them the more room for movement there is but not tight enough and exhaust gasses could leak…
