Greve pipe setup

[Ed Alt]

Thanks for the replies on this.  One last question: how much clearance is
needed between the pipe and the pan?  I've got one spot at the front of the
pipe where it's about 1/8".  Seems like this is going to scorch the paint in
that area.
Thanks
Ed

Like Dean said, you can usually bend headers a bit to fit.  I do it all the
time.

As to length: there's a tuning schematic I drew on our web site.  27 1/2 -
28 inches from the plug to baffle will do the trick.  Go to

The Hobbico large silicone exhaust deflector fits the Greve pipe.  P/N

Looking for feedback on how to best set up the mounting on a Greve pipe
setup in a Focus II. Webra 1.60, Johnson header with 2 1/4" rise and 3 deg
offset. First issue is that there is essentially no clearance between the
header and the glass pan. Apparently you have to cut it and extend it. I
suppose you can just use silicon coupler to join the cut sections? How much
length of exposed silicon can you get away with between the two sections?

Next issue is that the aft end of the pipe needs to get directed down and
away from the fuse bottom. What sort of extension are you guys using and
how do you attach it?
Thanks
Ed
