I've got the beginnings of a performance T4.
I bought a decent 73 2.0 core complete from 914Sixer. I got a set of 1.8 SSI aftermarket heat exchangers from another member that are also pretty nice. What I am missing is the bottom tins that go between the heat exchangers and the engine case. Anytime folks put dedicated headers on a T4 these are left off... How important are they? I'm thinking "not much" but I would like insight from others. Thanks Rick |

How did 912s become part of the conversation? The HEs for them are a fraction of the length compared to 914 HE’s. The unsecured portion is dinky. Looks like they rot just as nicely.
