Are there any basics which should be followed when making stainless exhaust systems? Equal length? connectors? Cheers folks.

Stainless expands and contracts loads more than normal steel does!! Take it this is for your new engine, if so i made mine in two halfs ie one back box each side and a balance bar accross the middle (this equals up any pressure difference)

I'd be having a read of this before you get your hacksaw, tape measure and welder out.
