Gentlemen,

I have requested costs from the mfg weeks ago. He has been on extended Dec holiday vacation, but I expect him back this coming week.

I like the center-mount fan housing so well I'm keeping one on our vintage road racing Ghia.

What's this Christmas vacation stuff? WORK PEOPLE!!!!!

OK--

The centermount insert will go for $150 USD.

We are working on a 36HP style housing, in aluminum, that is an entire replacement for the Type 1 housing, using the center-mount ducting (modified) inside. No price on it yet.

If you can make it look just like this

JiI, that looks awesome! I want to do something very much like that...only, with a T4

Mr Camper, I love the purposeful look of the center mount FS, however, since I'm doing an upright conversion of a T4, I will hold out for 36hp doghouse. I MIGHT be willing to try the center mount, but I'm gonna need to do a bit of research first. Thank you for this effort, however.

That is what was posted back on Dec 7th by FJCamper.

Heh, yeah I just read through the entire thread. Reading is my friend, only, I need to do it sooner rather than later. I also saw posts by Piledriver where he asked about this insert relative to the Saco T4 upright conversion center mount. That's kinda the way I want to go, but I wouldn't be opposed to, say, the CSP conversion pieces with a CBPerf center mount FH, if it will work.

OK, enough already, I have been following this thread since day one that's TWO YEARS already and my alloy centre mount has ben screaming out for an insert, I would love to order one subject to the price being planet side and my 1641cc T2 engine with dual DellOrtos DRHL 40s is running and the car is nearing completion but I live in a warm climate and the better the cooling the better it is, I also have a fan assisted Dynaflow oil cooler from a NASCA engine that keeps the oil temp down too.

So when can we expect some prices and delivery dates please?

He posted the price above. $150 for the center mount insert.

Inc, tax etc. or nett?

Gentlemen,

To get some centermount inserts out to those who need them, it's $150 ea. plus shipping, no tax. At the moment, an official website, etc., is being set up, but until then, they can be personal friend-to-friend sales.

Anybody interested, PM me, and I'll get your shipping charges figured. I'm trying to get Paypal set up for this, but until we do it'll be check or money order.

Where do we get the center mount shrouds to go with the insert? Does anyone have a template to make one?

JiI,

Commercial center-mount aluminum shrouds:

Of course, unducted, all the hollow housing does is create a conflicting windstorm in it. I'm embarrassed they sell such a thing and praise it. But duct it, and you have something.

We are making aluminum 36hp style fan housings, with our own ducting. Our CnC shop has a 36hp fan housing now to model from. It will fit Type 4's as well as Type 1's.

Figure out how to stamp out T4 conversion tin for a sane price...
