Title: FC EXTRACTORS ???
Post by: Blown_FC on June 02, 2004, 01:58:38 AM
Can anyone please tell me, if there is an off the shelf brand of EXTRACTORS that will fit a RED 202 in an FC engine bay ?

I prefer Pacemakers myself, but thought I'd ask what you guys may have done with your own cars ?

Cheers

Mark

Hi there Blown FC,

I have used  pacemakers on my HP block and fitted fine and they where off the shelf.

Also at first I had a set of Genie extractors and I fund them to be ok to, but they rusted out (Old age).
But I'm now running a set of 186"s" headers and I have not noticed any loss in power at all.(only mod to them is they are match ported to the head)
Hope it helps!!!!

Steve.

Thanks Digger....I did go and buy myelf a set of PH 5004 Pacemaker Headers.

And I was amazed !

It was the first item I've bought for the car, that has fitted just perfectly straight off the shelf ( if you know what I mean).

I was told by LUKEY and GENIE dealers, that there headers would fit my engine, but may need to be cut and persuaded into place to fit the engine bay.

But these Pacemakers, fitted perfectly....clearing, the engine mounts, the block, the firewall, the inlet manifold, the carbs ( triple strombergs ), and even cleared the Trimatic.

Very Impressed.....!
