e36 rack spacers

[adil325i]

Hi guys,

I have been having so many problems trying to get this spacer made so I can finally get my e36 rack into my e30, and be damned with it!!! I cant have the manifold made up, whilst the rack isnt in - spacing issues, etc.

Does anyone know where I could have one made in the London area?

Cheers,

adil

You can use a stack of washers, at least temporeraly so you can start working on the manifold.
I made the spacers myself by cutting 2 pieces from a rectengelar section aluminum bar of the appropriate thickness and drilling a hole in each of them.

I used two Austin Mini/Metro 'A' Series engine manifold washers either side.
Two of them are just the right thickness and they can't go anywhere.

cheers for the info guys, going to have a look into the metro washers too!

Adil, I'm about to have my rack spacers and coupling made.

Do you want me to get a price for them to make 2 of everything?
