Talking another great Pelican member!

Thom Fitzpatrick is one hell of a guy! I needed a RS Tube for my 3.6 since the weather here is cooling off...so Thom informed me that he had a few and could send me one at a great price!

I sent Thom the money and like clockwork he packaged up the RS Tube and sent it off. Just goes to show that this place is great and that we can all benefit from the outstanding knowlege base here.

Thom, thanks for the tube and the construction/design of it is awesome!



Thanks again.

Thom did the same for me, addressing the package to SCWDP member "Dr. Sopp." The RS tube is a great addition to the engine bay.

I just can't figure out how to get it dirty enough to match the rest of my engine.

Yeah he's a nice guy, but I'm pi$$ed his garage is almost done, and mines no where close. Seriously, he's a hell of a guy.

Thanks guys, but all I'm doing is reproing an NLA factor piece.

K9 and Jack,
Looks like you guys need to spend less time enjoying your cars and more time working in the engine compartment with q-tips and Simple Green
I just love those 3.6's Here's hoping that Santa brings me one for Christmas.

Mr Wide--so does this heater tube work better than the stock 3.6 heat setup or is it for looks and weight reduction?

That's the heater pipe eh? I see by the 3.6 the incorporated it into the fan housing. Or is the connector area also made of plastic?

Ha HA Paul...that would not be as much fun!

Winter is almost here, I am moving into a nice house with the perfect garage to do work/repairs/and clean .

So until then....vroom vroom!


Kurt, the fan housing connection is rubber and simply stretches around the heater tube flange. Install time was less than 3 min.
