Default Anybody interested in a coolant reroute spacer

Is anyone interested in buying one of these spacers? Im looking to make a little money on the side for parts... So if I can get a few buyers maybe I would make a few. Dont know how much, but it wouldnt be outrageous thats for sure. The more offers, the less expensive it would be
Here is a link to my re-route.

And here is the spacer.

3! Ok, what is everyone looking for price-wise? I know turbo tim includes shipping in his thermostat housing for $89. (just FYI)

Highroller,

Can you incorperate a slot so that the Tstat could be placed between the spacer and Tstat hosuing? I think thats the ideal location of the Tstat, so heater core circulation would pass before the Tstat opens.

If you machine a groove for the thermostat I'm all over this.

Similar part without the square corner is $20 from Moss. BEGI will make their round spacer for $18 or less.

I'd also be interested if it had the groove for a tstat.

cjernigan, is talking about the JR spacer from MOSS. Its actually $15, it is to be used with their JR CAI, where the thermostat housing needs to be raised to fit the CAI.

Let me do a little research guys and find out what the going rate is for similar products plus cost of aluminum, or maybe I have some scrap at the shop from extra orders. Get back to you all ASAP. I need a definate from all people interested (this is not a contract PS, I havent listed a price yet)

I can do whatever you want. Stock tstat? And do you want a slot machined in for an o-ring? Doing the slot might be a little more, like a couple bucks for the o-ring(nothing outragous) because I would need to do a little more programming

You have to call Moss to order it. They'll know what you're talking about.
