Hi all,
At the track today my muffler/megaphone hanger broke. Does anyone know where to get this type with the holes? I thought it was pretty cool, except for the breaking part. It did last several years. I know I can use a stock 2.0 one for this application but I don't think I have one at the moment and I think it's heavier and boring lookiing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) Thanks! |

Thanks everyone! Shoot, I had not realized it was an Engman product. I did buy several bits from him. It does seem correct that the break was in between the reinforcing weld points.
I can't simply re-weld as the broken-off piece is somewhere at Willow Springs -- I hope not embedded in somebody else's car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Thought about having a small run of these made but I figure like many boutique vintage parts, I'd probably sell 3 and be stuck with the rest for eternity. Would be extra sweet in stainless steel, I think. I'll do some web searching and if nothing turns up, maybe I'll try drilling holes in a stock one "R" style.
