I, along with Chris' (CFR) much appreciated help, conducted the previous group buy. I now have 3 tuna cans and 1 taco plate. The temperature sensor is shrouded (recessed) in the taco plate to help with the anticipated air flow.

I haven't measured the temperature variances vs the stock taco plate, so I don't know how 'off' the gauge is at indicating the actual oil temperature. The engine case is also aluminum, so I doubt the temperature difference would be that much to worry about.

Now, I'm not an hydro engineer, and not well versed in these things, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn recently (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Yep, Mark and Chris arranged the last group buy. It seemed to work out well thanks to their efforts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Sounds like you're a couple of taco plates short there mate (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Hi Neil.

I originally ordered a tuna can and a taco plate for my car, but ended up buying two more tuna cans from other members who decided not to install them for some reason (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

My wife's car doesn't have a taco plate nor a temperature gauge, so she'll just get one of the tuna cans.


Hope you get another large order this go-around too, you offer up some nice products (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)


I'm in for 3 of the oil sump cover plates (silver or black)

I should clarify. "One of each" for me means a taco plate, tuna can, and bottom plate.

Thanks!!

Ok I'm in for two of each. Bought one from Neil about 2 yrs ago on my own. The quality is excellent. Be prepared to wait a minute to get it past customs but he will come thru.

Carlos, are you going to have the entire order shipped to your location, then ship to the individual participants?

Most of the orders are small enough to fit into those small Priority Mail Flat-Rate boxes (+/- $6.00) ...
