Marty has offered to help make some brackets to fit the S2 heatshield to my exhaust. Some info here to help make them up. We can use one of the brackets by modifying the A/C bracket, but the other two will need to be fabricated.
First photo shows the old exhaust with two brackets.
One at the top between cylinders 3 and 4.
Second is on the lower flange next to the middle stud.
The third bracket is the ally part coming out of the head, top left. Only the right hand stud is needed, so either replace the whole bracket with a tube to space it out or cut/machine the bracket. The bracket on the top right of the manifold is tack welded on. This will either need removing or remaking.
Second pic is the heat shield in place on the old engine. The bracket on the left is for the aircon compressor which I don't have so it can be cut up or replaced altogether.
Third pic is the new exhaust where the heat shield needs to go. The lower bracket may be able to come from the threaded hole mid engine to the left of the manifold, half way down the engine.
