I have just received my purchase of downpipes and cats for about 100
pounds sterling delivered. Here is a photograph or 2:

They look to be a direct swop for the downpipes I got from Rimmers
(about the same price, but sans cat) and so should fit OK (which was a
worry buying unseen). There is still a worry that one may foul the
starter motor (engine circa 1971).
A couple of questions:
1) will the use of a cat on a UK car with a SU carbs and unleaded petrol
lower emissions (I beleive yes, but any other opinions?)
2) should I use an exhaust wrap on the cat (the existing downpipes are
wrapped)
Thanks,
