Holy thread-resurection batman!

Do you think this would be possible by putting a long drill bit in through the tailpipes and drilling some holes there or does the box have to be cut open/welded? Just a thought!

It is possible but the stainless steel is very difficult to drill it just eats drill bits (if you can even get the correct drill bit that long?) so I think it would be much easier to cut the box open. I got a local fabricator to weold it back up for £10.

Thanks for that.
I take it the holes have to be small and precise? A chisel in through the tailpipe and hit it with a hammer not suffice? ha ha

You need cobalt bits but they are quite expensive and have never seen one that would be long enough.

Or could just buy my pre-modified back box:-

Open to offers as it's cluttering up my garage!
