I have a set of SS echangers. The wraps are in excellent condition, but a few spots need to be repaired. On one, the flande that bolts into the head has a surface crack in it. Should I trust a local welder, or doesn anyone know of somebody who I could ship them to to have them touched up? Also, the contact surface where the headder meets the muffler could be refinished smooth...Thanks.

Chris, there is only one place to send them to. Brad at SSI where they made the damn things in the first place. If you would've talked to me before I went I could've taken them along to San Francisco with me.

Thanks Brad. :toilet:

Posted by: Brad Roberts Jan 22 2003, 04:26 PM

Sorry for being so harsh.

Please Chris, send them too me so we can fix them for you instead of selling you a new set. LOL

I thought you knew.

Naaah. You should send it to GHL!! Everyone knows SSI's fall apart, and GHL helps people out by fixing them for free.

(Oh boy, I bet this gets me a :finger2: from B!!! )

Send them to GHL (I'll pay freight) That would be hilarious. It would be the best return they have ever seen...

See Dave, I'm a little different. I enjoy good humor and know when somebody is being funny.

Naw, that alright. I heard you say something about it at JP's but I didn't get the whole picture. I didnt want to spout off about it and be wrong Ill get them packed up and shipped soon as possible.

I heard that GHL gives Brad free merchandise for running this board, and then he just relables it SSI!

JUST KIDDING!

DD's comments just brought that whole ugly thing back in mind.
Man, maybe he was coming off a binge or quit smoking or something?!
That was FUGLY

Posted by: Jeroen Jan 22 2003, 08:26 PM

Speaking in Playboy terms... that was a big "turn off"

But then again, everyone knows SSI's are crap and Brad was spamming to boost his sales

Cheers,

Jeroen

I'm just happy to have a place where we can have fun. I can see NONE of you will get SSI shirts or hats... LOL

Posted by: Bleyseng Jan 22 2003, 11:28 PM

Bump the hats and T shirts Brad, I just want a good Stainless muffler that adds about 5 hp.
I should get a T- shirt and a hat after spending all day Saturday laughing at your bad jokes......and watching you drink 10 glasses of ice tea.
Geoff

Posted by: Brad Roberts Jan 22 2003, 11:31 PM

I want the muffler as bad as you do.We are actually talking to the place that supplies SuperTrap with their packing material. I think 5hp should be doable.

Posted by: Jeroen Jan 22 2003, 11:32 PM

Are you sure he was drinking was ice tea?

Posted by: Brad Roberts Jan 22 2003, 11:38 PM

Believe it or not...

I havent had a single beer in over 3 weeks. The only time I drink beer is if its FREE. Before that it was 2 weeks or so (JP's gathering)

Posted by: Bleyseng Jan 22 2003, 11:43 PM

No one had a beer when we went for lunch, Brad had 10 ice teas, Olav and I had coffee, I can't remember what other guys had. I froze my ass off at SSI, standing around in a cold warehouse trying to get something done. Next time I'll bring some overalls so I can get greasy. yippie!

Next time, the gas will be on to that large furnace that was on top of the bathroom. I will fire it up. I went to turn it on and found out the gas was off to the building.

Posted by: ChrisReale Jan 23 2003, 01:11 AM

Thats worth at least a sticker :finger2:

Posted by: Brad Roberts Jan 23 2003, 01:15 AM

Dont make me dig out the ALL914.com stickers..

We will have some club stickers as soon as we come up with a logo that everyone likes.

Posted by: Dave_Darling Jan 23 2003, 12:23 PM

Duplicating? Are you duplicating what I think you are?

Gonna have door prizes for the run on Saturday? I think one copy per entrant would be a Very Nice Thing...

--DD

Posted by: Brad Roberts Jan 23 2003, 12:25 PM

I'm not duplicating anything.. We want a new logo.

Posted by: ChrisReale Feb 18 2003, 08:07 PM

Yea, Brad, any idea how much $$ it is to weld up one flange, fix a few seams, and refinish the surface where they meet the muffler? I have some cash coming in from a few jobs, and I want this on the list, besides paying you for that MPS. :toilet:

Posted by: Dave Cawdrey Feb 19 2003, 01:41 AM

Dont forget to pay the guy for those exchangers, Chris I heard he's getting pissed off.

No, wait a sec. IIRC, its the guy at the junkyard still pissed bout the backpad and door handles

Posted by: Brad Roberts Feb 19 2003, 01:50 AM

Chris,

It will be under 100$. The flanges (new ones) are 10$ apiece. It will take us about 4 hours total to cut the old stuff off and place them in the jigs for the new parts to be installed. I pray we can cut the steel ones off and install the later version stainless.
