FirstLook

These exhausts are labelled as being for a P-51B, but will of course suit a P-51C also. They are designed specifically for the recent new tool Kovozavody Prostejov kits. They represent an improvement on kit parts as this image comparing them to the kit exhausts shows.

 

 

The RES-IM items are a bit more crisply defined than the kit parts and have holes in the ends of the individual exhausts pipes.

Each pair of exhaust comes in a resealable cellophane bag with card stiffener. Item No 7221 is the shrouded style, and No 7222 the unshrouded. They should be very easy to remove from their casting blocks, and need just a couple of sanding licks to be ready for installation.
