Universal 16V rear outlets - now in!

Due to a good response from people to the 3D modeled concept shown this initially proposed part was fast tracked in it's production.

So here it is- one of the newly finished parts:




Still pending: All that these need now are for the O-rings and bolts to be organised, this should happen shortly.



Options: Being a universal design it has provision for an outlet on either side, if unneeded it can be plugged. This lets people choose exactly what suits their needs. Below is a quick list as an example:

- Right hand barb + plug: Suits your rear wheel 80s Corollas and Sprinters with the heater still in place


- Left hand barb + plug: Some cars such as the earlier Corollas don't have an external heater flow tap and need the water going in the other direction to usual. This saves using an ugly and problematic U-shaped hose.

- No barbs with both sides plugged: The easy way out for those who don't want a heater. Of note a heater core feed should never be bypassed as this becomes an effective radiator bypass, instead it should be blocked. With two plugs this outlet won't even be visible from the engine bay.

- Unusual options: There are other handy possibilities such as a right hand heater outlet and a left hand water feed for the cooling of a turbo's core. This provides a very neat and simple solution. A double barb for a heater and a riser tank or any other option people need. Different barb sizes will be available on purchase.



If anyone has any specific needs such as as well as ordering in some different barbs for those who need something I don't have in stock, such as for a turbo water feed.



Price: All up with the housing, O-ring and bolts these are $80 each.
