[Healeys] Exhaust Hanger replacement

[Oudesluys]

Are those rubbers the original construction method? I can hardly believe 
that as these are really for compression only. Better modify the 
construction using exhaust straps, rubber/fiber strips with a series of 
holes to adapt the length, or make some U brackets so that you can use 
the rubbers being compressed.
