Hi All

As part of my gearbox rejuvenation program, I will be replacing the cooler loop with a more robust solution. I have a suitable external cooler already, and will get pipes made up once I decide where to fit it. However is there any alternative to the 9 products (sold by design 911) adapter kit? It's on "special" at the moment at £77 but by the time you add vat and delivery its over £100. Seems expensive for 2 little fitting adapters. I've came up blank so far looking for alternatives.

Cheers

Stuart

Try either Aeroquip at Exeter, BGC Motorsports, or your local Pirtek.

As noted above, they are quite possibly AN fittings, and with a bit of shopping around should be available anywhere,

Thanks guys. The AN fittings are not the problem, it is the fittings that go into the gearbox that are decidedly non standard! It seems they need to be fabricated, which is what 9 products do with their kit, and do not actually have a name!
