i sent one to Wildcat.


::crosses fingers::

I got what looked like a canned reponse from Frik, pres. of Wildcat. The email asked me to fill out an on line form with details, and he would get back with me. I did this. I'll let you guys know what he responds back with.

I also filled a form out that was on their website, but it didnt have any details on what its about... just name, email, and where you are from.

but i still dont have anything.

I am in contact with Barney representing Wildcat. One problem is that the header they make is for right hand drive cars. If anyone can forward me good pics of the stock header for our USA (left hand drive) Aveo's - that will help things along. They will have to build a new mold for the USA/left hand drive cars - but it sounds like they are willing to do this. I am trying to get a price.

Is there any difference as far as the engine mounting/placement when it comes to right-hand vs. left-hand drive??

I also have both a stock exhaust manifold and a turbo one I can take pictures of, just that they are not installed on the car (well, I have a stock one installed, but the heat sheild covers it right now).

As far as I know they are the same exact engine. It shouldnt matter if its LH or RH drive.

But, I believe I get my car back tomorrow (should of had it two days ago but they keep skewing up my valves), I'll take a picture.... unless whiteraven beats me to it.

i dont think it should matter if it is LHD or RHD...

Here is my last exchange with Barney:
===============================================
Hi Woody,



Another photo won’t be necessary. If we had a sample or a detailed drawing it would be easy to manufacture it for you.



Regards

Barney

Barney,

What kind of money are we talking to manufacture, and ship?

BTW - there are MANY Aveo (and Daewoo) drivers that are BADLY looking for performance parts up here. I can not commit for them - but my guess is that MANY will want the exhaust header. Browse the forum below and you will see what I mean:

pics of left hand drive header:

If those are not complete enough I will do some of my own car this weekend and send.

Thanks,

So at this point I do not have costs from Barney - either for manufacture, or shipping. I am trying to get costs from Barney if I can provide him a "sample".

Maybe I'm getting the run around. We will find out.
