They are supposed to reflect the effort we all contribute towards preserving these cars.. I think they do that well.

Can't wait to get mine!! Once you build up a supply, they should sell like hot cakes. Our only choice in the past was stock six heat exchangers, headers or crappy fitting, poor heat B&B heat exchangers.

Can't wait to finish the group buy sets and get all of you your sets.. This will be a huge milestone.. I am still hoping to get them all out to everyone before the end of the year.. There are so many little things that take spool much time.

Ok..

In hindsight I should have just done o2bungs on all of them.. I have had a flurry of bungs show up and trying to figure out who they belong to is definitely keeping my mind sharp..

Thanks!

Steve I found yours. It was all just detective work and almost everyone sent in o2bungs from the same company so that made it more fun..

Its a good thought.. I may do that moving forward..

Little update.. Mark has been working on installing these and sending pictures of his setup. So far we ran into a little trouble with the jwest shift linkage and an after market or should I say modified 911 oil scavenge line clearance issue. He is documenting everything so we can make some minor adjustments.. The shift linkage (jwest) seems to be the biggest issue as of now but I don't know how many people actually have that set up either..

Good progress though.

Is the Jwest shift rod bent? On my 916 trans, mine is straight and has lots of clearance. The stock heat exchangers are beveled on top to clear the oil lines on both sides. If you bevel yours to match the stock heat exchangers, you should be good to go.

I think he is using the 901 box so it is a touch different setup from what you show in the pictures. I will update as I know.

Check out your stock six heat exchangers. They are both beveled on top. The drivers side is beveled to clear the oil cooler line and the passenger side is beveled to clear the return line.

The drivers side looks like its beveled for the shift rod and the oil cooler line.
