MG Midget and Sprite Technical - exhaust questions again

Moss has a sport muffler for the 1275, they say can be modifid to fit early or late models. Will it work with the 1500. the one for the 1500 looks gaudy.

doesnt the 1500 run under the drivers seat, i.e. the oppositre side to the 1275. so unless it can be turned upside down, I doubt it would fit.

You could try kim at Magic midget he has a few mufflers which I'm sure you could retrofit

oops didn't spot that one!

in the UK at least, the muffler is on the same side, on the 1500 it makes a diagonal cross to get there, but way before the can.

Not the complete system, just the MUFFLER

If its just the muffler your fitting then you should be able to retrofit it regardless of engine, as the 1500 exhaust system as mentioned crosses diagonally underneath the car, allowing you to use the sports muffler for a 1275 on it.
