Title: Carburetor Heat Shield
Post by: steve1973 on July 17, 2023, 12:22:27 PM

I am placing an order for carburetor heat shields. estimated cost is going to be $50 each. I'm also getting a quote to include 1 or 2 carburetor gaskets. I'm doing this in batches of 10 so if you want one let me know.

I should have a price quote later to day and I should have them next week. Shipping boxes are ordered. So, These will be shipping out to you by the end of next week if everything goes to plan.

Here is an update - I now have everything to put these kits together. You will get a heat shield, two carburetor gaskets, vacuum fitting and instructions. The price for the kit is $70.00 plus shipping. I have 13 kits spoken for so I have 7 kits left for sale. Contact me at htmotorpool@gmail.com if you want a kit. I will be contacting those on my list this weekend with payment instructions and will be mailing kits out next week. Thanks for being patient with me.

Received my heat shield in the mail today Steve...thanks!  It's larger than I thought, and nice thick 16 ga. steel...not flimsy at all!  Appreciate you including the gaskets, 45 degree vacuum fitting and instructions....simplifies and almost dummy-proofs the installation.

Again, great contribution to your fellow halftrack owners and the hobby!
