Heater 'ears'

Post by alex-95 »

I'm wondering if anybody could takes some measurements of the heater ears, I've drawn 3 lines on the attached photo of what I require If it makes sense? Green being the 'height' and the blue and red being the 'widths'. I'm trying to cover the vent pipes on my modified SPI heater but not sure if they're big enough to cover them.

Cheers Alex

Dunno but I’ve got a mk1 / early mk2 heater for sale if you fancy it? Needs a resto.
I've got a 69 Mini with a 1046, Cooper Head and a four on the floor.

Thanks for the offer, I doubt a mk1 would fit very easily with the setup I have.

Yes, I have some of the Magnum ears.

They fit like the originals. You just have to add the cracle paint or coating.

Cheers, They don't look bad in the photos. I think I may just buy some and modify them to fit.
