   AC special development team created special ground effect for the Ace back in 1957, the car would sit low until ignition was
   swithed on,then it would rise to the occassion and settle at ride hieght.
   (Copied by Citroen years later)
   To be followed years later by many Formula 1 teams. Once again like
    the Ace & Cobra, Good Idea well ahead of it's time .. ..
   Slammed to the ground meant the exhaust was run through the Chassis Tubes. A trick learnt from Morgan's decades earlier.

apparently Keith attempted to emulate this by  running the exhausts through the body. the modification was not simple and involved a very precise manner of debarking the ferry...

   Good play on words  ...  Debarking/Disembarking and Disembowel
   
   Disembark: Upon leaving the ferry in Liverpool on return from Competing in the Manx Classic 2007.. The ferry ramps attacked and
   Disemboweled BEX333(moved exhaust system rearward by 200 mm or so)
   
   Debarking... Silenceing ones AC to say comply with Race requirements of Maximum 105 Decibles.
   
   Debarking would have been a few Thousand Pound cheaper that's for sure.
