    I know there are a few people on this site that are selling the EGR kits, and whilst not wanting to take business away from them, I am wondering if anyone would be willing to post the measurements of the various components?

    I, like some others, have access to the various materials & know-how (ok, its called a Mate who is a boiler maker ), but need the measurements. Some diagrams would be even better, cause he works better with pictures...

    So, is this possible, or am i going to have to delve into the bag of reasons to find one for SWMBO?

    I bought a kit last year, only fitted it this weekend and I realised I need two extra blanks for the heat exchanger, so if you could get your mate to whip up a couple of blanks I'b be happy to fix you up for the cost and postage.

    Cheers

    Optimum...

    Exhaust - Mild Steel (Same expansion rate as manifold)

    Inlet - Alloy - Same expansion rate as inlet...

    And hint... Use sentences and paragraphs - not continuous typing, easier to read!

    So if you are not making any money, why won't you let Basil know the measurements..? Quite a lot of people on here put themselves out to help others. Good on you for helping. Its not always easy to pull apart your own car to do stuff if you need it every day.

    I seriously doubt that you will get them made quicker than local or even UK based supply. I would be confident that if you ordered through Devon 4x4 or similar in the UK you would have the kit in under a week, and I am also sure a OZ supplier would be quicker still.

    You're not coming across very well here.....

    This bloke is obviously an abusive, rude individual...

    I'll measure one up for you and post the dimensions here....
