HOW TO DO AN ADVANCED SEARCH.

Mon Jul 08, 2013 3:56 pm by Admin


For the benefit of 944Hybrids users there are two search functions available for you to use.
The purpose of this sticky is to explain the "Advanced Search" function because it is much more powerful and is the best choice when researching information.

When you log on to the site a list of options is shown in a line at the top of the page. One option is labelled "Search", use this option (NOT the search box lower down on the right).

After you click on the upper search option, a drop down box appears. At the bottom of this box is a radio button marked "Advanced …

Modified Hooker driver's side header and regular passenger side, includes exhaust pipe connectors. This is a slight improvement to the original design, as it uses fewer new pieces, and the flange did not need to be ground down or modified. HOWEVER - this is a tight design and will ONLY fit motors that are not "dropped". If your motor is dropped, then there will be interference with the upper steering shaft collar.

Nice welds and fitment, flange mating surface is straight and flat. You'll probably want to paint/coat them.

Cost + shipping from Toronto.

These were TIGged, not be me since a) I don't have a TIG machine, and b) my welding skills are not adequate *yet*. I have a local machine shop that does all my welding for me, and did the pair I sent to xschop in the summer.

Like it says - these will fit when using the standard motor mounts (xschop, BFH, Renegade) with no crossmember drop. It *might* fit with a small drop, you *might* need to persuade them (by denting them), but you're on your own if you do that.

You named off three different motor mount upright, Which on does it work with? BFR (who no longer makes them) and RH uprights both use cross member spacers. Xschop I'm unsure if they use them. My up rights are similar to BFR and require cross member spacing. Do you have Xschop's uprights in your?

I have my own, but they are the same dimensions as Rob's.

Just to clarify, the crossmember drop is so that the hood clears the motor. Technically, you don't need it, if you want to run a hood bulge. I have a nice fibreglass one if anyone's looking.

You need to get a set of up rights made from Greg's drawing. I would check your headers against that before you start selling them as a generic fit all. Rob's mounts are different than anyone else's

There are many variations that will work, if the correct mounts and plates are used.

As far as the headers...
Looks like the #1 primary tube sits lower and further "out" than the first set...
Would possibly hit the strut tower (?)...

It was relocated why, JJ?
For your car?

All you need to do now is get these CARB (california air resources board) certified and everyone is a winner!

If no-one else wants them. I'll take them. They will fit even with 3/4" drop, the motor may have to be moved to the passenger side a bit, but no biggie. When you get rid of the bulky cereal bowl and can place the back of the driver's head 3/8" away from firewall/plate they fit very nicely and clear a single and even The Tilton Dual MC nicely as well...
My version is tucked further away from the top shaft coupler and later I'm going to build a compact coupler shaft for my next swap...

The #1 primary does site lower, but is also tucked in closer to the other primaries. Makes for a more compact unit, reduces the length slightly to get it closer to the other primaries, and also reduces the number of bends. This is basically the second iteration of the design I did over the summer. It's easier to fabricate, as it requires fewer cuts, grinds, and additional pieces to make.

I was going to use these myself, but I'm going a very different direction altogether for my exhaust system.
