Got a S3 2.25 diesel with 3 stud manifold in SWB S2a chassis. Will a S3 SWB full exhaust system (all 3 pieces) fit the S2a chassis and mounting points? Looking at buying a system soon so didnt want to get wrong one.

Cheers

I think the answer is - probably; but they do have different part numbers, although I suspect they do actually fit. (could be,for example, metric bolts or similar)

Note that diesel intermediate pipes changed in 1973, although I suspect either will fit.

Also note that petrol and diesel are different, and also that very early 2a had the exhaust outlet from the manifold pointing up - it is probably easier to fit the later type of manifold than to find this very early engine pipe. If you have a LH fuel tank, I don't think the standard engine pipe fits - I know it doesn't on the 109.

Also, although I don't think this is an issue, but the muffler is different on LHD.
