V8 Sports Exhaust System - Stainless Steel
Standard Exhaust Systems
Individual Components
Exhaust Manifold & Fittings
Our ever-popular sports exhaust system for the V8 (derived from a race specification) is suitable for both manual and automatic, right hand or left hand drive vehicles.
The 7-piece system features a pair of 4 into 1 tubular manifolds coupled to link pipes, which incorporate flange connectors to join the manifolds to a large bore Y-pipe. From here onwards, the system is of a single pipe design.
The reason for flange joints on the link pipes is simple: some of our customers ask for the option of retaining the original cast manifolds and downpipes instead of tubular manifolds (with the associated cost saving). Consequently, fitting flange joints and special link pipes means that we can offer a system that can be fitted with or without tubular manifolds. The system incorporates a pair of free-flowing silencers, tucked away in the axle well so as not to interfere with ground clearance on the Vitesse (we do not recommend fitting where the ride height is lower than Vitesse). Another feature is the tailpipe, which is a separate section of 3" polished stainless steel, with a gentle upward curve to follow the contour of the rear valance.
Rolling road tests show that gains in power and torque can be expected, depending on the age, condition and set-up of your engine - please see graphs.
The system is also suitable for large capacity engines. The sound is pure Rover V8 but comfortably refined inside the car at cruising speeds.

Clutch hose (stainless steel braided) - (1) - RO1017GR
One piece braided flexible hose, from master to slave cylinder. Recommended for use with tubular manifolds.
Tubular manifolds by design produce a vast amount of heat in the engine compartment. This increases the possibility of electrical/ignition components not working effectively and promotes a higher risk of fire (if any combustible material comes in to contact with the manifold), not to mention the likelihood of severe burns when working on the engine!
By wrapping your tubular manifold with Thermo-Tec insulating wrap you can overcome all these risk factors. Thermo-Tec keeps the heat within the manifold so the exhaust gases have a much higher velocity, this induces negative pressure (scavenging) which increases air intake flow, resulting in better performance & economy. It also reduces under bonnet noise.
Technical Notes: Thermo-Tec heat wrap - which is race & rally proven - comes in rolls 2" wide x 50ft long and moulds to the contours of the manifold. Being a silica based fabric (it does not contain asbestos or carcinogens), it is unaffected by oil or water, withstands temperatures up to 1000 degrees celsius and reduces under bonnet temperatures by up to 70%.
Snap-Strap Retaining Kit We strongly recommend that you use Snap-Straps to retain the insulation. These are stainless steel straps with a narrow profile (for tight spots) that you cut to length and fasten with snap type heads. Alternatively you can skin your knuckles and use hose clips!
