Exhaust silencer
 

For my Wolseley wasp
Exhaust silencer
1&1/4" or 32 mm inlet and outlet pipe
5" body diameter ,or there abouts
24 " long ,an inch or two either way isn't critical

Any ideas or leads for supplier would be most welcome
Thanks in advance
Cheers Martin

Just a thought , do you have a custom exhaust maker near by? Have had a few items done for agrucultural products over the years, more than likey somewhere 'boy racers" would use!.

Got a local firm on stand by to make up exhaust,but am having problems finding silencer with correct input and outlet mountings
1&1/4 " is not much used now
Yes I can used flared couplings at either end but would like to avoid this if possible

Does anyone know if the exhaust system fitted to the Morris minor is 1&1/4" or32 mm bore ?
Think I could get enough usable parts from this system if right diameter
Seen complete systems on interweb for around£80
But can't get any info as to tube dimensions

I have catalogues in work which give all the dimensions of available exhaust systems, but I am not in work until Wednesday - if you can wait.

Cheers Carl.

Thanks Carl
That will be great

Carl , would you be so kind as to copy to me as well , the Austin is also needing a suitable systym .

By the way , to those interested , it turns out to be a 12/6 with the 15.9 engine option , I thought that it all seemed rather light for a 16 horse car .

Hi Bob
There are thick catalogs with a few hundred pages in each one - not practical to copy.

Once I dig them out I will let you know and you can give me some critical dimensions and I will have a look for anything similar.

Cheers Carl.

In the meantime you could both have a play with - http://www.walkerexhaust.com/catalog...mension-search

However it looks like the smallest in/out pipe size Walker manufacture is 1.5" diameter.

Cheers Carl.

Mm , I see , a case of careful what you wish for . First of all I must get the floor boards out and measure up the available space .

Just had email back from suppliers of the Morris minor exhaust system and their pipe is 35 mm bore
I've room in the manifold mounting flange to machine a suitable hole for this to fit into
There is enough pipe work to be able to make up,a functioningsystem ,with a little bit of modifying
Will the slightly larger pipe work cause any problems?
Looking at the manifold flange more closely it appears that the 32 mm pipe now in situ has been flared out before being welded in place
So perhaps 35 mm was the original size fitted ?

When I ran the Daimlers.
 

I seem to recall that I simply used what I could afford which was approximately the same size as whatever was on them, I never had any problems from doing that.
Incidentally, if you have an SU carburetor and it does not have the damper for the piston you can bore the piston ,make a damper to fit and get a bit more acceleration..
If the MPG does not matter to you you can also polish the needle which fits into the jet to get a few more horses, even a couple of thous off makes a difference,
I hope these vague hints and recollections help.

The standard Morris 1000 exhaust system used to have a nice crisp fart on the overrun .

You have been warned !

Thanks for very useful link
The long wheel base unit looks like what I'm after
Have sent them a message
See what they come up with regards dimension etc
Many thanks
Cheers Martin

Austin Ten Drivers club do something similar , 1.1/4 and 1.1/8 I think for a 15 hp .

One of the best suppliers I've had the pleasure of dealing with. Always happy to help and very knowledgeable.

Jamie is great as was Dave it its previous incarnation, especially if old man Dunford was there when you rang up. If they didnt know, you had no chance.

Is he back ?
Been trying for two days to make contact ,by email and phone
No response to either ?
Cheers Martin

Result
 

Following a tip off from a neighbour I've solved the exhaust problem for the wasp
A local branch of a national company allowed me access to their obsolete / unidentifiable stock rack

The result was a brand new 35 mm " Bosal" silencer box and front pipe combined
And a brand new length of stainless 35 mm tube
Another search through junk pile revealed a perfect preformed 90 degree bend in a length of pipe
The result is a D I Y exhaust system which just needs putting together

The best bit ?
Total price including two brand new exhaust clamps ?
£20 :D
Have already roughed out the system and now have to fine tune and assemble on the car

Many thanks to everyone for their help and assistance
Cheers my
