Any recommendations for extraxtors for the 5k? I seem to get a massive difference on prices when I ring between Repco, Autobarn, Supercheap etc.

Where have you purchased them from? and what did they cost? a good brand? Pacemaker or Redback seem to be two options available.

Theres a Dude at the end of my street that sells them on eBay (they are grey) and they are a total PIECE OF SHIT... I had to spend like 6 hours to make them actually seal down on the head. The flange is too far away from the bolts, he has welded the runners all the way to the edge of the flange so there is NO flat surface to use to clamp the ʞ©$ɟer to the head, Then, Ext from cylinder 3 comes out at a small angle that means getting a bolt in there is actually a physical impossibility...

 

In the end, i had to heli-coil the head, fit undersized studs, Have 2.5mm thick washers made up to go under the 10mm flanged nuts (small stud size) then had to grind them away at certain points to clear the welds to it would actually touch the flat flange section. After all that, 3 still leaks a very minute amount... :down:

 

So irritated (if you cannot tell!)

i got orange coby ones in nz they bolted straight on, fir well with no modifications needed. Paid $200 NZD off a mate for the extractors and a lumpy kelford cam.
