Re: Billet CCT

I'd Rather buy yours than APE ones due to the fact i'll have them sooner. Hopefuly they will be cheaper? :shifty: true enough, i have been waiting for some APE CCT's from debbens for over a month, seem to be a shortage. The APE costs are not so bad when considering the price and hassle that would ...

Re: Billet CCT

v nice work there, i would certainly be interested in a pair if you have not been overloaded with demand. The more i read about CCT failure the more paranoid i become about every rattle i hear from the engine, and my current CCT's have done over 20k miles so its a little overdue for the CCT upgrade :D
