These would be 2X - 3X the cost if they were 911 parts. (Or if we were just paying Ben what he's worth)

What would a set of headers in 1 5/8 '' w/o heater boxes sell for?
That is if you will be making them that way? |

Ben, Thanks for posting your photos. Makes me want to get a six for my 914. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
I was reading the October 2016 issue of Classics and Sports Car and came across the article below about a British exhaust fabricator. Shown in the photos is a set of headers and jig for a 911. I thought you might find it interesting. Sorry about the clarity, but it is a scan from my home printer. Attached thumbnail(s) |

For those not in the initial buy I will sell you sets at 1650 after the first sets are fullfilled but will not take any orders discounted after the 1st group buy starts getting delivered. Hmm (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) So I've got a deadline to find the money... |

Yup but you have time.. We are hopeful to start delivering mid to late December because of parts supplier timelines.. So you will have time.

I am currently running stock heat exchangers on my 3.2 and it only seems to effect the top end. Low and tq will be effected by to large of primary.. That said the smaller displacement engines typically have the power band higher in the rpm range so would not be real noticeable. |

Ok just got home from a weekend away and checked mail box and had 9 checks in there along with 1 paypal.. I have updated the list on the 1st page but need everyones help as people sent checks and some did not give me their screen names so if you could make those connections for me so I can update my binder..
After some thought I will increase to allow everyone in on the group buy that has inquired to date and sends deposits. So that should cover 15 people. PMB and supertec are businesses so they are not shown on the group buy etc and not part of the count. I have a few that want o2 bungs and that is just fine. I dont have any made at this point but if you want them added just purchase SS ones on line and send them to me. We will charge 15 dollars per to weld on.. MFi heater tubes are also in play and that will be T&M at $60 per hour.. Please email directly at mbconsulting21@gmail.com or text 262-364-7426 for amendments to the list.. Sorry for the confusion this was way bigger then I thought so the PMs were over whelming |
