After what we will call the hostile take over of my former stainless line up this a great option. I wanted to add some additional muffling and this allows for it. |

I’m setting aside a pair for when Ben is ready to set up production. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) For sure. I would be happy to. It’s not super easy and the biggest problem is that someone else did the flange swap on the passenger side heat exchanger and for some reason it is not level. The driver side is perfectly straight and level |

I have a set of 993 heat exchangers. I am going to mod them the same way you did. Thanks for the idea.
But I am sure my welds won't be as nice as yours! |

So the interesting thing about these heat exchangers are that they are double walled so they weld like shit as there was some oil in between the sistered up shells. Be mindful of that. Also as I said I inherited someone else’s butcher job so unfortunately I have to live with the wrong angle on the one side. Stay tuned for the finished product though. I would like to offer a kit for folks |

Hey, I could do that!
If I had the setup, and the tools. And the equipment. And decades of practice. .... And more than zero talent .... Nice, work, Ben! --DD |

Made some progress This is excellent! I have been wanting at least 1 heat exchanger for a year now. Well this would be an option for you. But you would want to run 2 of these. Currently cost on a set of these heat exchangers from what I am seeing is about 500. I got my set for $100 but that was a deal. The work to make these work is time consuming. I have quite a few hours in this but for big engines this is a great solution. For me this is a clean setup and will be nice for my EFI setup. |
