Pete. (l33t FS) said:I'd love to clean the heat shield brackets off and have it cleaned up and coated. It looks way too nice to bury under a shield.
I am very tempted. We should have a spare that we just took off a development car, that would let me do the work without disabling 338. You know the Cerakoting will take longer than expected...
Care to elaborate on the hood prop rod relocate? That seems right up my alley for the nb.
In reply to Dusterbd13 :
Basically, it's a pair of brackets that mount the factory hood prop clips to the shock tower brace (STB) uprights. The prop itself is a straight rod with a bend at each end. It was designed for the original FM STB, discontinued many years ago. Easy enough to build at home if you have an appropriate STB to mount it to.
Would you happen to have some close up pictures of the brackets? I may just build that for my nb2 strut Tower bar on my challenge car
They're very complicated :) Each one is a piece of 3/4" flat bar with a hole at each end and two little bends so it clears the bar. The prop itself is a steel rod with a 90* bend at each end, one to go through the factory pivot and the other so it sits flat against the hood like the factory one.
Far simpler than what I was thinking.
Thanks!!
