We're looking for people to join a group buy of custom tuned length pacemaker extractors to suit GT40 heads in EA-EL

Can we have a show of hands?

Better make this a sticky Waggin, it might drop out of sight before everyone sees it.

I am not adding my name to it, I don't want NA headers down the track. :twisted:

Ok - I would be a genuine buyer if we had enough numbers. Normally when Pacemaker sells to clubs they give you a rate far better than the RRP.
When I get 10 positive yes's I will go and talk to Pacemaker.

You also need people to post not just enter the poll, anyone can click the poll but have no inclination of actually buying the headers.

"Shane" needs serious buyers, not dreamers.

i voted yes (<$600) assuming they will fit on a pair of edelbrock rpm's. (if you really meant gt40 & not gt40P)
q's tho. what size primaries, collectors & flange sizes are we talking? what cats to use? i.e. where (in west syd) can i get high flow cats that will fit between these headers & my current cat back system? (i want to fit it myself & i dont want to change the whole exhaust). very interseted tho. cheers :wink:

I would buy a set if they fitted the S2 TS50 alloy heads in an E-series car.

At a minimum the exhaust would need to be as long as the ELGT style extractors (which have the cat flange after the 70 degree turn. Most extractors adapt this philosophy. Otherwise it would be a waste of making the extractors - the standard exhaust manifold length is too constrictive to make decent power with..

so does that mean i can't fit any cats between these extractors and my cat back (i.e. after cat) system? :? i dont want to use restrictive standard ones, but something high flowing that will keep the car legal, and not have to replace the whole exhaust system would be preferred.

The standard E series extractors have the extractor flange before the 70 degree turn but the ELGT extractor have the 70 degree turn and then have the extractor flange on the horizontal. The cats are not moved back from the E series location - they just have a flange straight after them rather than the 70 degree turn and flange.

As long as they are 1 3/4 primary, I'd Jump at the oppertunity to have a set.

O.K... so i can have something modified/shortened or use elgt cats & keep the current cat back system.
Ill ask my 1st Q again though

I rang pacemaker today - to do a "new" extractor they want at least 100-150 orders to cover the R&D costs. I put it forward to them to do a copy of the ELGT extractor - of which I would supply a new one to copy from. I have set up a meeting with the head of R&D on friday. I was also told that the Pacemaker tuned length E series extractor was never put into production....
