Split exhausts

Nasher · 24-08-2020, 08:30 AM

Not Monster I'm afraid, but genuine 900 Superlight Exhaust Cans.

I have a pair in the garage that I want to use on my latest project and have discovered that they are both split at the flange where the sleeve goes over the 'cone'.

Has anyone had a set of these apart?
It looks like an easy TIG repair if I can get them apart, and am assuming it's just a case of drilling out the three Pop rivets at the other end, taking the mounting bolts out and sliding the Ali sleeve off.
Sounds too easy and Haynes manual like when put like that!

They don't have to look perfect for what I'm doing, but I would like the look of the standard cans rather than aftermarket ones.

Whilst I'm in there I might as well help them breathe a little easier

Anyone have any tips?

Thanks

Nasher.

They look similar in construction to OEM 916 cans, so I imagine they would come apart in the same way. There's an article here on how to core them: -

Thanks Darren.

That's going to help.

Just have to dive in over the weekend and try getting them apart.
