Well 46 people looked at alert and took advantage. Probably did not have that many to start with. They are $12.98 IF you look under Porsche 914, lol.

I placed an order on Monday from RockAuto for 8 tubes @ 2.78 and will be here TODAY!
Too good a price to pass up on. |

I ordered some also and received them yesterday.
The walls are much more thin than the originals or the ones made by Dansk I believe. The finish is bare metal. You always get what you pay for in the end. So for those that missed out, you didn't miss much. |

Thin walls, better heat dissipation, quicker oil cooling, lol

Are those the very thin aluminum ones? I got a set of those on the FAT engine I had rebuilt over the winter (I had told FAT to use the cheapest tubes they could find, as I was going to replace them with Tangerine stainless ones anyway).
They were so thin, I pretty much could not get them out easily without damaging them. But they worked fine... |
