heat exchange rear crossover tubing needed
Below is a pic of my Fabspeed headers w/ heat on my car missing the crossover heat piping.
Fabspeed apparently doesn't make a crossover heat pipe for the 3.2 Carreras (had I known this BEFORE buying it, I wouldn't have bought their exhaust) Sooooo.... I'm stuck with this for now and need to find a way to get some heat into my car. Does anyone have any suggestions? Anyone on here able to fabricate something for me out of silicone tubing, stainless steel, aluminum, etc...? ![]()

Then you have to beat it all out of proportion to get it to fit up and I don't believe I could get muffler clamps on it.

I hear ya. I bought ssi/dansk for my 3.2 the fit was a disaster. I don't think you should have to adapt anything for what they charge for this stuff.

Not sure of the dimensions you'll need but...
I'd take it to a good muffler / exhaust shop in your local area and have them bend up a pipe for you. Then get the couplers you need in silicone or whatever. You should be able to just drive the car over without heat tubing hooked up right? -Steve.

I have the silicone tubing that Fabspeed sent me... but their recommendation is to cut it up to make it fit. I'd rather just have a 1 piece system. Hopefully someone on here has some fabrication skills that they can use for me to make some extra money!! $$$
