scam75 9 products do the end pieces but for a conversion which I would highly recommend. 951 Transmission Cooler Adapter | 9products This allows you to use rubber hoses and a little cooler radiator such as a mocal 12 row. I went down this road after a 3rd broken cooler pipe emptied my gearbox at speed and did a lot of damage. The boxes are strong and it survived the first 2 broken pipes. The 3rd time, was not a charm! I should not need to worry about a repeat now with my freshly rebuilt gearbox! Also I think the weight and movement of the original finned cooler pipe causes the ends to wear and it is very common for them to leak even with new o-rings, especially the lower down one. This will not occur with a rubber pipe/cooler set-up and indeed mine is still leak free a couple of years down the road. Also has the added benefit of allowing you to remove and refit the OS driveshaft without the f'king cooler loop doing your head in!! Stuart

StuartThanks Stuart - already seen that and the kit from Augment Automotive. I'd like to keep it as original as possible and also save a few pennies, if it only costs £50 or so to get a new end piece made then I'm taking that route. I've already got some project creep on the current work so trying to rein in the costs David
FrenchyIf Ken wanted to sell it he needs his head looked at, he needs to have some pleasure now by using it, epic build, they were not as good as that when new, it will be interesting to see what it is valued at, which obviously is a must for insurance purposes, you also need a salvage rights policy Ken should anything happen to the car, God Forbid.
