Does anyone know how different theexhaust systems are for the 2.0 Coupe and Spyder? How much fettling would be required to fit a Spyder exhuast to a coupe?

Why? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/303803492196

I wouldn't pay that much but it may be a way to get a serviceable system on the car while I restore it.

The only difference between the REAR sections of the exhaust system for a 2 litre Spider or a 2 Litre Coupé
is the length behind the rear rubber mount. You just have to add 150 -200 mm or so, of metal pipe - to move
the chromed end pipe backwards. Otherwise they are identical.

The FRONT sections for Spider and Coupé I have never compared, but most likely, at a Spider front section
you have to add 270 mm length of metal pipe. (270 mm is the difference in wheelbase between Spider and
Coupé.)
