It's funny you should ask. It's been a couple years since my full mechanical rebuild and my 356 is back in the shop for some minor work. I decided to ask my mechanic to revisit the install of the Sebring exhaust. It never got sorted or fitted during the rebuild and was left to gather dust. It looked good hanging on the wall, but that's not really what I had in mind for it. Since my rebuild, my mechanic bought a 1940's Piper Cub (I think it's a 1947) and made some new friends in that hobby. One of those friends is a vintage airplane exhaust maker. My exhaust was sent off to the airplane exhaust guy for some tweaking. It's back now and trial fitted to my car. I'm including a picture of the very recent trial fitting. According to my mechanic, there are still a couple of small cuts and welds that need to happen for a perfect fit. I don't have all the particulars on just what the airplane guy did. I will. I'm looking forward to getting my 356 back with the Sebring exhaust installed and will give some feedback and more pictures at that time.
In the meantime, I'm working frantically in my own garage trying to get the vintage 1977 Scorpion Whip Snowmobile I recently purchased up and running. Carb and fuel pump rebuild, all new fuel lines, etc, etc. It has a German 2 Stroke engine (JLO/Rockwell/Cuyuna branded engine depending on who you ask
