rules on exhaust height/position?

Are there any rules specific to where the exhaust pipe exits the car?

maximum height?

angle?

etc...

nope apart from the obvious don't have it infront of the drivers face kind of thing, thought you engine’s in the back anyway...where are you thinking of having it come out??

mine come out of the back window

cant find anything in construction and use or the mot testing guide relating to height but im sure sva rules are different

thinking about using standard 4 into 1 header/manifold and coming up and across the back, but might have to have the exhaust coming out higher than expected.

I may lengthen the tail pipe so it looks more standard!

ford favours push-chair height on the passenger side.
