B234 in a 360

Does anyone know - will a B234 engine hook up to a standard 360 downpipe?

I think SJS has exhaust this way, so should fit, but he has said that it may restrict somewhat and 2,3l engine downpipe is perhaps bit bigger in diameter.

I'm not fussed if it's a bit restrictive, but as long as it fits, that's the main thing for now.

Hmmmm, a plan may be forming

Speak to Mark Higgins, or better still the guy who put the B234 in his car...Andy something or other. Andy is on the VOC board...now a diesel nut...try a search there.

cheers
