NEW Motec, Bosch fuel pumps/regs, Romac parts delivered CHEAP to the Fling in June!

Some of you may know that Hershal (BT SNAKE) from Arizona has very kindly offered me his Cobra to drive to the Fling in June while he drives his brand new Roaring Forties GT40

I have been looking at what to buy for my Cobra while I'm over in the States. I downloaded the PDF catalog from www.motec.com to see what you guys were paying for fuel injection stuff. You're paying WAY TOO MUCH! For example, the Bosch Motorsport pump 044 (generally rated at 700hp) sells through Motec catalog - page 37 for $407.64. I can bring in any number of these for $295-. Same with the Bosch motorsport regulator. $781.72 through Motec, $330 from me! The ADL dash would be nearly 30% off Motec's price, M800 also about 30% off. M48 about 35% discount. If you're after any Motec / EFI related parts around June, I can bring them over with me. If you're going to the Fling, or know someone that can collect them there, shipping is free.

Romac is an Australian company that makes balancers/ 9 key way timing chains, fully floating hubs, spools etc. If anyone wants these parts - again at about 25% off Summit/Jegs pricing, let me know. I won't be able to bring many balancers or hubs in my suitcase, but I'll bring a few if you ask me nicely :P

Where we can't compete with U.S pricing is in clutches, transmissions, superchargers, alum heads and tyres. For the Aussie made (Romac, Motec) or non-US made (Bosch) parts, we're miles in front....

I'm not doing this to make money. I'm just going to sell the parts at my cost, then bring a G-Force transmission and McLeod Dual Disk Street Twin clutch assembly back with me. Geez, maybe if you guys pay full price for the Motec/Bosch stuff, I'll end up with a G-Force for free !!! ;D

;D

I sent you an email Craig. I could be a candidate for parts. I do like the way a few Aussy guys make big HP. And very clean installs I might add. Hershal is going to be a very busy man when you get here. Looking forward to your visit.

Did not make it to the track last weekend, very bad wind storms. Hard on cars that go 150mph. We are going tomorrow. I will give you an update. Kevin

Kevin,
Sorry the Mustang didn't have a run. I'm really interested hear what combination you're running in that car!

Re - the injectors. I bought some injectors from the States for my own car, but they're the Holley (Rochester) injectors (96lb/hr) My dyno guy isn't too impressed with their ability to handle high fuel pressure, or their tendency to run rich at idle. He wants me to change to the slightly smaller Bosch injectors, so I'll know the pricing on Tuesday.

The fact that you live in Arizona makes delivery of parts easy! I don't know if Hersh will be too happy if I set up a temporary speed shop in his Phoenix guest house

I'll shoot an email off to you.

Hi Craig

I would be interested in M820 with all access codes turned on, harness and termination kit for the M820.

Our Canadian Looney is about par with your Aussie $.

Thanks,

Ken

Hi Ken,
When you say "all" access codes enabled, do you mean logging, lambda and logging, or the big Kahuna.... pro logging? Do you need telemetry? Let me know and I'll get some pricing to you.

Hi Craig

Just data logging and lambda. Do not need pro-logging nor telemetry.

Thanks,

Ken

Hello,

I emailed you earlier. I would be interested in the M48 pro. Can you please let me know details on how to purchase one.

Hi John,
Wow! This is an old thread!!! I actually posted this information before last year's Fling.

Now, I have to sheepishly admit that I can't remember the email that you sent. The last replies that I've sent have been addressed to :
Paul B
Aaron R
Brian
Scott S
David W, and
Scott R.

What happened to your email???

When did you send it, and was I polite, informative and courteous in my reply?

Anyway, if you'd be good enough to email me at cobraracer@yahoo.com with an idea of what you are putting the Motec on - and what level of specification you require, I'll get back to you straight away.

What I'll say right away is that I really prefer the M800 over the M48 PRO. For a couple of dollars extra, you get much better tuning software, many more features, and the benefits of ongoing research as the M800 stands at the top of the Motec product line. You can download the entire new software program for free, directly fom the Motec website....

Thanks for reading this far!

John - all is revealed. I didn't receive any emails yesterday, but there were two days worth of emails when I went there today... Yahoo have never done that before!

I now have both your emails, and a reply's on the way.

For anyone else that's interested in getting some Motec / Haltech / Autronic / Bosch / Romac or Rollmaster parts for lots less than current US prices, delivered to you at the Fling - let me know ! Send me an email to compare prices.

Craig, I wish I'd seen this post last year, I could of used an "Aussie net" on a couple of ARB lockers.
