It has been about 16 months since I have had 914-6 sheet metal available. I will be making sets in about 4 weeks. Steel is crazy expensive right now so the $500 retail will be a new reality after this group buy. I have enough material that I had laser cut almost 2 years ago to make 15 sets. I will offer a set to anyone wanting a set at group buy pricing for 350 shipped.

These are a fraction of the cost of anything else out there.

Don’t need another set, just a shameless plug for Ben’s incredible products!

Posted by: mb911 Nov 24 2021, 02:54 PM

5 sets shipping Friday. Stay tuned for a total count and what is left. I will make another run but there will be some updates and improvements but will cost a little more.

Posted by: David Stowers Nov 24 2021, 04:58 PM

Hi Ben
Are mine shipping in the first few?
I want to add a set of oil lines to the package please and need your invoice
Thanks
David

Posted by: Krieger Nov 24 2021, 05:11 PM

What kind of updates and Improvements? I may be interested in holding off on my shipment. I am in no hurry.

Posted by: mb911 Nov 24 2021, 05:59 PM

David,

Technically you have not bought a set yet. I need to send you an invoice. I am shipping to everyone that purchased back in September then once all of those orders are completed you are 1st on my list. I got overwhelmed and delay after delay I was not comfortable selling any more until that was handled

That said thinking there will be a set for you. I believe 10 sets are paid for and there are 13 total sets. I will be modifying the 13th set for some improvements that I want to do for the next batch.

Posted by: mb911 Nov 24 2021, 06:02 PM

Really all of these to this point have been in need of fitting and triming before paint. I want to revise them and improve them. My intention was to never make these again and just use the RD ones but the pricing didn't work out so here I am back at it again.. I expect with new steel prices and improvements they will go up another $100.. remember the price for these sets were based off of laser cuts I had from over 2 years ago.

Posted by: mb911 Nov 26 2021, 10:13 AM

1st 5 sets have shipped. Thanks again. Just to clarify I will continue to make these valued sets of sheet metal going forward along with oil tanks, GT rockers and some headers but mufflers are done for sure in Stainless. I make a value line of steel mufflers

Posted by: David Stowers Nov 27 2021, 03:13 AM

Thanks Ben, please send my invoice ASAP and I’ll pay immediately.

Posted by: BillJ Nov 27 2021, 09:56 AM

Ben would still like to get a set but hadnt seen invoice. Let me know please

Posted by: mb911 Nov 27 2021, 10:00 AM

Bill sounds good. I just need to fill all the other orders 1st. Remind me if I forget. Balancing a lot with the stainless muffler close out. I will definitely be able to serve everyone that wants a set just maybe the next run for some

Posted by: David Stowers Dec 20 2021, 06:49 AM

Hi Ben, hope you’re well?
Can you please send me an invoice for the set of engine sheet metal as first requested in September. I am keen to get the motor fitted in January/February and could do with the tins ASAP.
Aa per my previous messages I’m also after a set of oil lines to hook up the tank I bought from you in the summer.
Let me know if you can’t find my pm with details and I can resend my address etc.
Thanks
David

Edit* Forget it, I’m done trying to give you my money

Posted by: mb911 Dec 31 2021, 11:22 AM

David,

Sorry you feel that way. I only had so may sets that I cut almost 2 years ago. Then I moved, settled in and then had to reset up. Then delays of some support materials. I have doing another 20 sets
They will cost more but will be in stock from now on.

There is only 1 of me and I work full time and also do the business which is almost full time.



Anyway if any others are interested in sets let me know. We will figured out pricing on the next round and send invoices right away. The invoices will ensure your spot on the list.

Posted by: ClayPerrine Mar 4 2022, 01:34 PM

So Ben.. are you saying your work is exhausting?

Posted by: BillJ Mar 4 2022, 01:37 PM

Booo
Yeah!!!!

Posted by: mb911 Mar 4 2022, 03:29 PM

Bill sending you an invoice now. I think what happened was that last time I had left over parts that were laser cut from many years ago and then everyone pmd me and they were gone.. ugh. Well soon to be back in stock on the shelf permanently.

Posted by: BillJ Mar 4 2022, 03:33 PM

Alrighty
