[Healeys] Exhaust hanger in compression

[Alan Seigrist]

Shhh don't show this pic to the concours folks!!  I like your set up though,
quite smart.

The BJ8 system is really heavy, I've found just using Exhaust hanger straps
works the best with it.  On my BN1 the exhaust is light enough, the original
set up seems to hold up ok....
