Hi ......yes mine is indeed a Heggemann muffler and the problem exhaust
stub is in two parts with a split sleeve joint so it must be an early
version
Thanks

I raised this a week or two ago for an early XS exhaust (a Heggemann).
The saddle flanges were provided to fabricate a cabin heat source by
attaching around holes made in the shroud surronding the silencer (which
is attached by two large worm drive clips).
Neville recommended throwing the flanges away (lack of heat will not be
a problem !) [Not sure about that, but I'd like a heat source separated
---From the exhaust system]. The shroud should be left on (reduces heat
transfer to things above it).
He also said that the down pipe which is in two parts, with a spilt
sleeve joint, was designed to be used with no clamping around it, but
that he always added an exhaust clamp at this point.
