Thanks all!
Lots of useful info as ever!

Speedbird 48
Yes. I've got the engine mounts sorted as you describe. The problem with the Hanlon Wilson exhaust, and particularly the mufflers is that they appear to be remade examples using an original as a pattern which means they are oversize. They've also been made to toe in to fit the cowl. This was fine with the smaller C85 oil sump but they won't pass the 6 qt sump on the 0-200 without a remake of the exhaust manifold.

Mandator and Sleeve Wing
That'll be WLAC engineering I presume. I don't suppose either of you have a Leise fitted? Just interested in a rough assesment of how the exhaust sounded after fit?

Thanks for the PM, I think I may have seen an article on this in PF a while back. As I keep the back issues I'll sort it out.

Time to take in the info and have a gin and tonic evening I think!
