ahhh now that's superb!
I don't need one, but there's lovely neat solution to the ends!
Have a look on here: you want a pair of Hygienic stainless 4"to 2" concentric reducers, they are cheap enough and will look really neat
when tigged on!
Stainless Linky
Retro RWD is the way forward...........automotive fabrication, car restoration, sheetmetal work, engine conversion

Thanks - good linky that.
But this woulod make the can longer as the 2" tails would need to be on the ends of the cones.
Will only be for SVA and then lending out so the shorter the better.
Not sure if it's mild or stainless either.
It is magnetic - does that help?
Cheers,

Not really, some grades are magnetic and some are not.
DO NOT PUT ON KNOB OR BOLLOCKS!

I think all cats are stainless, they get so hot that mild steel would rot away in no time.

Makes sense as it looks rusty, but more "tainted" on closer inspection.

Damn tasty bit of kit you've got there. I just hope that at least one part of my build ends up like that!

Maybe not, but i's still yours. No need to go telling folk that though is there? If they don't ask, let them assume it's your
work.

Too cold to go back in the garage now!
Give me a couple of weeks to get the chassis and full cage painted and nice to look at.
