So while my 914-6 oil tanks are being machined I going to start working through my header with heat exhanger design out of stainless.. I do not have non compete on these with m&k so that gives me design freedom.. However I will use similar design process as the m&k/ rarlyl8 design. So my question is 1.5" the most common size or allot of you using 1.625

Any idea what the cost will be for 1 5/8" heat exchangers? I am currently running stock 914-6 heat exchanges on a 3.2 motor. I know its choking the motor a bit, but it runs fine.

Just a quick costing exercise would be per header 1 burns style merge collector $175, each flange $10, each bend is about $20 along with the heat exchanger which will not look stock but more similar to b&b.. Probably in 200 per heat exchanger in stainless steel and non polished.. I have also considered making heat exchangers for the headers that are already out there in the aftermarket.. I think my target would be 1500 for a set of complete headers/heat exchanger. |

At that price you would have /6 customers lined up around the corner, that is if you can come up with a product/design that works. |
