    Hi mg turbo *70* (What's your name?)

    I'd be interested in stainless heater matrix and fuel filler pipes if you get some made.

    Cheers,

    Ian

        Didn't Jeff look into getting this done or is my memory failing me again?

                Hi Jake - I like the progress so far - especially how neatly you have fabricated the jacking points. I'd be interested in stainless heater matrix pipes also. Do you have a cost and time scale for these to be made yet?

                  Hi Mike, thank you for the kind words.
                  I have sent the matrix pipes off to a company near by
                  Me so they can come back with a quote of time and price. I should hear back from them Monday hopefully. I was thinking about putting an order in for 10 so I just need people to claim them lol.

                      update to the stainless heater matrix pipes: the pipes will be all cut and bent and the flange made up, this alone is going to cost around £90 then, i will weld the whole assembly's up using a tig welder or mig welder where needed myself to make the whole process cheaper and i will not charger for this so if anyone is still wanting this then i don't mind doing this at all. let me know. i will get a quote on the fuel fillers in stainless after i have done the pipes.

                          Hi - can I see a prototype first Jake if you don't mind me asking? Just to gauge things if you know what I mean.

                          cheers

                            hiya mate, you certainly can... i wouldn't want to buy something without seeing it first! lol i can assure you though... it will have to be perfect for me to put it on my own car! aha are you interested in it at that price still if it all is up to your standard? i know its a fairly expensive price tag but i thought for what it means ( a rust free heater!) its not as bad as first thought! lol

                              Yes Jake very interested as my original heater pipes are completely gone. I don't mind paying out for good quality items - however I'm not expecting a work of art or anything lol. As long as it fits well and will be functional for many years to come. Good of you to do this btw - greatly appreciated.

                                I second what Mike said. As far as I'm concerned it's not the price that's the issue, it's the value for money. If they're good quality and will last forever, it's a no brainer. Therefore, I'll take a set.

                                Keep the photos coming, they're great.

                                Cheers,
