Land Rover Part Number: NRC4218 - Exhaust Y Piece for 3.5 Twin Carb V8
NRC4218 is an exhaust Y piece for the downpipes on 3.5 Twin Carb V8 engines. Fitted at the junction where the left and right downpipes meet, this Y piece collects the two downpipe outlets and routes exhaust gases into the forward section of the exhaust run. The part is specified for petrol V8 installations without a front-mounted catalyst and is used on earlier Land Rover V8 applications including Series 3 Stage 1, selected Defender chassis up to the specified VIN range, and Range Rover Classic 109 models to 1985. When replacing this assembly, inspect adjacent downpipes and mounting points for corrosion or distortion and retain correct alignment to prevent exhaust leaks and undue stress on downstream components.
