Interest in Scatter Shields

[Reeves]

I made a scatter shield for my car last year (common block with A555) that covers the flywheel and cluch area in case of an explosion. It is made to NHRA rules.
It seems there is some interest in producing a few more of these.
I just wanted to see how many show of hands there are for people WANTING them.
If you run faster that 11.50 in the 1/4, you are supposed to have one.
Should fit any 2.2/2.5 and 460/465/525/520/555 trans bolt pattern, but we are going to be testing on 2.2L/A568 and 2.4L/A568 to see if it will also fit.

Show of hands?

As disussed, Likely 2.

Is this helping tie together the bellhousing as well or just keeping their swimmers nhra safe?

[ShelGame]

Any chance it'll fit an A413 too?

Honestly I just made it per the NHRA rules, but I'm sure it probably helps the bellhousing area some. It is 1/4" thick steel that is 2.5" wide. It bolts on at the top two mounting bolts, and the bottom bolt towards the rear. The two halves bolt together using (2) 3/8" bolts.

There is a pretty good chance it would fit. Maybe I can ship you one when/if we get them made so you can test it for me?

I am very interested in one or more if it fits an auto

Absolutely !

I may be interested in one if it will fit the 2.4/568 combo. I'm in the beginning stage of converting to a 2.4. Hoping to have it done soon.

[black86glhs]

Send me one and you will have the satisfaction of knowing I'm running one!

Kinda sounds like your Koyo bearing posts in 135sohc's thread, doesn't it?

[BadAssPerformance]

In for 1 for sure, maybe more!

[cordes]

It may be something I would purchase in the very far distant future, but I'll need to turn way more RPMs or go way, way faster than I do now for me to buy one. I think it's a great idea for all of you fast guys though.

I'm not drag racing but high rpm gear changes and twisties still invite some flywheel explosion hazards. I'm interested.

Interested in 2.2 523

[Reeves]

JT, Tommy, Rob.....

I could take the scatter shield off my car for now, ship it to JT (2.4/568) and Tommy (2.5/568) to test fit. Then, they can ship it to Rob to test fit on A413. Then Rob can ship it back to me.

Think that is feasible and could be completed in a relatively short period of time?

[BadAssPerformance]

I think it is feasible. Can you get it here before next weekend?

[Shadow]

Weight?

[Turbo3Iroc]

I'm in for one.

[Force Fed Mopar]

I'd be in for one if it'll fit a 2.4/T350 combo

[ShelGame]

I can easily test fit it on my spare A413...

[tommy]

I'm in for one maybe more and i am up to test fit one if needed .
