rooferboy03 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Hi all Is there any way at all that the twin exit exhaust on later v8 p38's will fit the earlier model with the single exit or can it be modified to fit. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hybrid_From_Hell Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Not quite sure I understand what your asking On a 'classic' the 3.5 single port system can be replaced by all the later 3.9 twin stuff with a few tweaks here and there Not familar with the Taxi RR P38 stuff Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escape Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Hi all Is there any way at all that the twin exit exhaust on later v8 p38's will fit the earlier model with the single exit or can it be modified to fit. cheers It is possible, I did it on my '95 4.6. When the old exhaust failed, I decided to replace it with a twin sports system, designed for later models. But it does involve some tinkering. The centre muffler is no problem, and the RHS fitted perfectly. For the LHS you obviously need extra support brackets (which requires trimming the left wheelliner) and have to cut a piece out of your bumper. The T-piece joing both rear mufflers to the centre one is a problem though. It interferes with the brakelines and their bracket. On later P38a's the brake and ABS lines go forward from each will and join each other ahead and above the axle. On the old one, the brakelines join on top of the diff, right where the T-piece is supposed to come. I solved this by moving the lines to the rear, behind the panhard rod and fixing them to a longer bracket to keep them away from the exhaust. The result works, looks and sounds great, I'm very happy with it. Greetz, Filip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooferboy03 Posted January 28, 2008 Author Share Posted January 28, 2008 Thanks for the info mine is a 95 4.6 as well so it sounds like it might be worth doing. the exhaust thats on it is just starting to blow so the time is coming. Can you tell me what make of exhaust you used or was it original land rover Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
