Group Buys

We have one current Group Buy going on for our Dual EGT Gauge Kit. Normal price is $250. Group Buy price is $225 plus $8.10 shipping anywhere in the USA (contact me for international shipping estimates). The minimum number of orders was reached quite a while ago, so there is no waiting. Orders ship as payments are recieved.

There appears to be interest in reviving an older GB on our High-capacity Aluminum Oil Pans for FCs. Retail is $349. The GB price is $299 plus $20 shipping in the USA. We only need three participants to make it happen. Maximum number of orders will be 20.

You can find the GB thread >> HERE <<.

As soon as at least three people step up. We have penty in stock. GB price would be $399 plus shipping, which is as low as I can go off the $425 price.

Please feel free to suggest any potential Group Buys here. Just tell me which product you are interested in and I will give you the pricing and other details. If it sounds good, go into the Group Buy Interest Forum and start a thread to see what response there is, as well as working your normal haunts on the Forum. If you can round up the people, I will be happy to cut you a deal.

Sure. We've done that before. I have about 50 of them in stock now, so supply is not a problem. I would want at least 5 participants. Regular price is $69 plus shipping ($8.10 anywhere in the USA). How about $59 plus shipping? Or, it could be full price but including the Gates 7370 v-belt (normally not included; $12.50 value). If you want to proceed, let me know. I would probably start a GB thread in this forum and ask you to post a thread in the Group Buy Interest forum directing people to the GB thread here.

The FD Aluminum Oil Pans? $425 is the regular price. Shipping is additional. The proposed GB price would be $399 plus shipping, which would likely be $20 via FedEx Ground....so $420 shipped, if the GB takes place.

I already have one firm payment on an FC pan and several more people promising to send in a deposit or payment after payday, so it looks like a viable GB. I will combine the GBs into one, so as long as there are three purchases of aluminum oil pans (FC pans for $299 and FD pans for $399) in any combination, it will be official.

The thread on this is in the Group Buy Interest section.

Shipping a pan to Canada is $27 via Airmail Parcel Post. Sorry, we don't make an aluminum oil pan for FBs.

I have to halt the GB on the FC pans. I thought we had plenty of the FC pans but when I looked on the shelf today I noticed that you guys have almost wiped out my inventory. I have a few deposits, so I can't sell them all. We do have more being made, however. The FD pan GB will continue.

Cool

I'm down for the alt relocation bracket group buy. Belt wouldn't do me any good however, as I'm running serpentine style multi-rib pulleys. I'll have to figure that one out on my own

Just want to add that I got my engine stand adapter in record time, you guys have a happy customer out here in Pennsylvania!

I would be willing to do a GB on the alternator relocation brackets. I have a bunch more made up and ready to go, except for the front cover spacers. Once I get those done, I can get them packaged up and ready to go at a pretty good discount.

Glad to hear it.

The Idler Pulley Kit? That might be a good GB prospect because we need a large initial order to make machining more up worthwhile. The first batch sold slowly and people didn't seem to understand the value until they were all gone. Now our primary machinist is tied up with a major contract and can't do the fill work. If we go with someone else, the order will need to be substantial and we won't want to sit on a lot of inventory.

I have seen pics on this forum, but I don't have any. We don't currently make alt relocation kits for FDs due to the limited potential market (electric WP, no AC, no PS), though we may start work on one if a project like that rolls into the shop.
