Maybe the one with no insides is/was the better looking pattern part- very close as per here and NLA? www.patternparts.net/p-Exhaust_Collector_Box-37877.aspxI have read a period mag review that said the thing to do was to fit the "popular stainless aftermarket" balancer box- but I have never seen or heard of one apart from this one reference....

That chap is the dead ringer of a mate of mine I've known since I was 4.... And funnily enough, his mum did cut my hair.

I wouldn't be surprised if the only thing the bit of box section is doing is holding the two bits of tube together, does it actually provide an open link between the two tubes.

I will try to get in touch with the kid this week and show him the H type collector and see if he thinks its something he could make up. When I know a bit more I will get a post up, fingers crossed. It must have some openings inside the box to balance the pipes so I will see what he thinks.

Could you not run the twin exhaust system minus the collector box with through pipes instead, what function does it actually serve?

the collector box fools the engine into thinking the primary side is dumping you will find a loss of bottom end power with out it it just creates back pressure

That's true.
SBY would not tick over when it had the rotten collector on it.......no back pressure.
