Goopy Scatter shield FD
 
Anyone have one or have a PIC?

Untill my next tranny plans become solid I need one to run. the $350 for the goopy one has me puzzled ad im not sure if its just a 4" peice of plate OR one like this

the TRS one is no longet avialable, his fabricator retired so pooooof...

But i'm considering buying the goopy one if its a nice piece, If not it will be time to refill the tanks and fire up the rose bud. I have a spare bellhousing so making one dosent seem that daunting of a task... and the fab your own price cant really be beat

Bump. For the thread below

C. Ludwig 08-05-12 07:24 AM

Bacon, did you have any issues fitting the scattershield? I just installed one on an FD and had to trim a good bit of it to fit around the driver side engine mount. Also have to trim on of the cast in tabs on the bellhousing.

jamespond24 08-05-12 12:31 PM

Mine fit good without any trimming

Bacon 08-05-12 03:15 PM

I did 2, thought it was b/c I run poly mounts, I didnt have to trim anyhting on the tranny, I mean its tight like a condom but eveythign ligned up with a but of a push. wonder if its designed for factory mounts? i forgot to to ask mr goopy when i saw him @ pan ams

They probably will be but if you want to see the piece or check fitment I bought one from them at the Pan Ams.

Thanks Ant. Have you installed it yet? I will have to pick one up if they are there.

bringing this back... so, if you have your rotating assembly balanced and plan to rev to 10500rpm for your normally street driven but sometimes raced car, is this a need or a good to have?

Good to have FOR SURE, not only if you plan on reving above about 10Krpms, but if you plan on launching the car hard. Scattershield is on my want and someday list :lol:

Good stuff. Is any available for rx8 Fd Eng swap?

Skeese 07-10-16 07:02 PM

Thread's been dead for a while.

That being said, I talked with goopy a month ago and was told "they will be in stock real soon".

I also found out that the price is now $425 up from the $350 it was when Bacon made this thread in 2012.
