I have a guy that bough a flexdam some time ago and needs the rubber now. As the rubber is a larger extrusion and there is not much margin on these I didn't do a bunch extra to have sitting on the shelf.
He needs the rubber, and I have to do a significant run to even get it down to this level, so I figured I'd try to get a few others interested to make tis happen.

The tooling is done and has been proven, it's just a matter of having enough interest to make this work. Who's interested?

the Flex dams are 10 and the rubber is 20 pieces. The fiberglass should be no problem. I need at least one myself, I'm running it without the rubber, but this is mainly for making the rubber, and I figured a few people need these too, and there were a few of the old flexdams floating around that may need these for those. These are a direct replacement.

If I can get close on the rubber I don't mind throwing a few in inventory and charging a little more for them as needed.

Here is mine. The new design is much better than the first run. The flex dam attaches much easier.

Anyone running one of these with a front oil cooler ? Just wondering if there is enough meat to the fiberglass to cut an opening in it for air flow to the cooler and maintain strength ? Also I'm running 993 style brake cooling deflectors is there still enough air flow under the car for brake cooling to still be good ? I may be in for a set based on the replies to my questions. Thanks for continuing to make parts for these vintage cars. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
