Offshore Leg.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...tem=4567127890
Have a look at the leg on this. It has had two holes bored into the back of the leg and 2 s/s exhaust tips fitted over them.
Does anyone know the pro's and cons of doing this? I have seen another one like this only the tips were right near the top of the leg.

Rob.

Once again boys, cheers.

the legs can be prone to cracking at this point and should have aly pipe welded ito the hole.
