BONTINENTAL B.V.

We wish to try the effect of the dual exhaust manifold, running into a single expansion box on the above engine.

Will you please instruct coppersmiths to connect by suitable bends, the manifold and expansion box which are existing, also we wish to fit a cut-out to the expansion box which is existing.
