Just wondering would this fit a standard 1200, or is the bore larger? If so I could make a shim on the lathe to space it out?

should fit but no advantage imo get a standard 1.2/1.3 back box like this (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/EXHAUST-VAUXHALL-NOVA-1-0-1-2-1-3-1-4-GM7_W0QQitemZ370116100276QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Car sParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item370116100276&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1683%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C 240%3A1318) and save 95£ there exatcly the same iirc ones red and ones not, if ur that fussed get some high temp red paint 10£(at most) from local motor factors there you go :D

They do sound different, I heard a 14sr with a sport back box and it sounded like heaven!

On my 1200 I cut the middle box out and kept standard back box, cut off twisty gay pipe and welded on slightly thicker straight tailpipe, sounds nice IMO!! Had a mate believe it was an Ashely rally exhaust lol

Might buy one but just can't descide it's too boy racer, after all it's only a 1200 :)
