EXHAUST

When I swapped the motor, the exhaust was something I botched together and never really finished properly, and it leaked right under the drivers seat.

So I welded up all the holes in Zuk #3's extra long exhaust, and made the exit pipe extend outside of the cab. 

After I finished it, I realized having the pipe straight out is bad as some Zuk folks are saying I need to put a 90 degree bend on it, otherwise the fumes will roll back into the cab

So, I ripped out all that work, shortened it up, made a couple of extra bends to help with clearance and added a 90 degree.

It's done. I'm not 100% happy with it, as the pipe would be much better placed between the wheel and the bumper. 
Space is at a premium, and my tube bender makes a horrible mess of exhaust pipe, so maybe one day I'll get it done properly, but for now it's functional :)

....and I KNOW I'm gonna squash it on some rocks at some point LOL
