Re 40/50HP Chassis - "U" & "V" Series - Exhaust Fittings.

Mr Coverley recently informed us that the cars running the Front Wheel Brake tests in France, were fitted with 5 clips on the Front Silencer and 4 clips on the rear.

Do you recommend these should be instructed on standard production and conversions?
