Does anyone know if the heat shield included in the blitz kit is available seperately? Have emailed them but no response as yet. If not does anyone know of an aftermarket one?

Cheers.

They wouldn't sell me one so I made my own out of aluminium.

My Dad owns a Fabrication company. Can you let us know the sizes and such like and I'll get the old man to knock some up!

Cheers,

Taz,

You're a life saver mate, can you mail it to me? Where the hell can you get a cold feed from though? I know the obvious position is from the wheel arch but is there enough room in front of the grille?

I made my shield by looking at photos of the Blitz one, so if Tazz can get a drawing then that would be ideal. I'll take some photos of my setup and get them posted.

I took my cold air feed from where the original one was by the grill. I bought the Pipercross kit from halfords and then bought a longer peice of aluminium tubing so that the the air comes from the back of the bonnet. If you blow lightly into the front grill you can feel it come out the other end by the air filter.

I have just finished a full engineering drawing for a Heatshield for the CTR. As i am unable to produce a prototype, some dimensions may require slight alterations.

I have based it on the kit with that comes with the Blitz, along with a bracket and spacer.

Stu, i need your email address so i can forward the design on to you, i have it as a PDF file.

As I told you Barry, my Dad has said he'll quite happily build the prototype, test it on my car and then put one into production.

ANY TAKERS FOR THE TAZ DESIGNED.....STU'S DAD BUILT CTR HEATSHIELD?

Taz, You have PM.
