Wrong tin and heat shield on exhaust fouls the mounting bars. Me and this late exhaust system have fallen out.

Not sure you can get the tin on after silencer is on and you need to tin.

Exhaust straps go under exhaust not over. Makes sense, should you replace rear box - when straps removed box would fall away. It's all new to me!

Yes. Early don't need the slots in the tin as the engine mounting bar doesn't have exhaust brackets.

Need to set the dizzy to an approx TDC setting, gear could be in any of 12 positions so you can't copy another engine.
Shout if you need help.
