They are indeed a sturdy bit of kit but the problem seems to be the centre divider gets eroded by the gases after a good period of time but running a bead of weld across them does help.

Cheers

The Walker item, which I have on my car, seems to come with said weld bead already applied. At least, I took mine of a car tecw1979 was breaking and it had the weld on.

Someone rumoured that these Walker pipes are available for about £70 upwards, and they do have a full length divider.
