Just brought a sprint, have a couple of questions.
In my opinion the brake servo is upside down. the vacuum pipe is at the bottom. Is this likely to cause any issues?
The exhaust only has one box under the drivers side. Has obviously been adapted to cut out the second box. Has anyone else done this? never seen it done like this before..

Sorry may have more questions as I find out more about this car.

Yes, the servo is on upside down, the one way valve is usually at about 11 o'clock on a Sprint. I can't see it causing any issues, though access may be awkward if you need to undo the hose at that end, but the advantage is the hose probably won't rub on the bonnet reinforcing rib like they often do.

It may be using a standard 1850 silencer...
