[E-Type] Need help in Irvine, CA

I am working with a specialist who will be making some custom components
for my E-Type. He needs to see a car to make some measurements, but
shipping my car to the West Coast is cost-prohibitive. . Is there a lister
with a 6 cylinder E in the Irvine, CA area who could spend a couple of
hours to help me out? I can promise that this will be an enjoyable task for
anyone with an interest in high performance.

Please answer off the list,

Mike… I live about 20 min away… but he would have to come here since Im
still putting my interior back together… Pete Willetts

Pete:

Thanks for the reply. I'm trying to work a deal with a company in Irvine

that makes exhaust systems for Indy cars and the like. What I’d like to do
is get them to take a fresh cut at engineering a set of exhaust headers for
the E. There’s been a lot of good engineering done in the last 35 years,
and we aren’t benefitting from it! If they come up with something new, I’d
like to work out a group purchase for the list…I’m sure that I’m not the
only one contemplating headers.

What they need to do is to examine a car close up....they may need as

musch as a full day to do this. Once this is done, they can give me a cost
estimate, and we can work out a deal. There’s no rush on anyone’s part to
get this done…if you think your car will be on the road in a month or
two, that would be fine. Please let me know if you are still interested.

Thanks,
Mike

Ooops…this wasn’t meant to go to the list, at least not yet. If the
research pans out, and the price is right, I’ll keep everyone informed.
Thanks again to the listers who have responded, hopefully one of you kind
folks will be in a position to help out.

…be sure he compensates for power steering and A/C and power brake
booster. The test car should have all 3…LLoyd
