[QUOTE=Kris Kristofferson;556447]Hey guys, does anyone have connections with a good carbon fibre supplier? Hutch would make them if he could get a good source, he does great trans work you can check it out at YellowBullet

I believe the shields must be SFI certified and re certified every so many years so home made won't get you through Tech.

Hey guys contact Hutch at..


http://hutchtrans.com/shop/


Perhaps if enough interest is there, and carbon fibre suppliers are found; a alternate source for shields can come though. If someone here has connections in the carbon fibre world this might help a lot..


I can tell you that the shields would be top notch certifiable units as Hutch is a big time trans guy..

If anyone is interested I am have blankets made specifically for 200 Metric Trans. I could not get one to fit my Nova without major work and they will be lighter than the aluminum shields. If interested email me at kenkeir@gmail.com or call the shop. 301-855-4988

For those running a TH-350 trans, ATI is coming out with an SFI-approved case. Supposed to be this summer.

Both the transmission rigid shields and blankets must meet the requirements of SFI Spec 4.1.
The transmission rigid shield must be inspected every 5 years and the blanket, every 2 years.

I just installed a trans shield for my 4th gen Camaro on a metric 200. Came from Tom Waters Race Car Products. It bolts on to two brackets (supplied) that attach to each side of the pan rail. No twisty straps. Fits real nice and did it with the trans in the car. They can be reached at 407-240-8626. Bill Moulding

I got my blanket from Ken Keir just in time to throw it in the trailer and install at the track the next morning. Was easy enough to get on my metric 200 and I have the brace. I need to re do it just a little better but it's fine. Ken is a racer too and very easy to work with.
