Help required old V8 nose cone


RoboS

Recommended Posts

Please can some one help with some advise on a new nose cone on my Seight ?

I need a new nose cone, but its no longer available from Westfield. However i can get one without the vent.

I can mount my rad, current located in my current nose cone, on to the front of the chassis but will i notice any effect of the heat from the rad passing through the bonnet.

 

 

Thanks

Hi Rob,

 

Has Westfield told you it is no longer available? I got my new one only just over a year ago. I can't imagine the mould has been discarded. Who have you spoken to?

from the description I'm guessing that Rob has the earlier "kit type" ducted nosecone rather than the current ZK bodywork that was supplied with your new kit, but Westfield now only have the moulds for the standard unducted "kit type" nosecone.

Thanks Mark for clarifying that. I didn't realise there was a difference.

I've got an old nose cone if you'd like it? Not really sure what it's worth as its got a scratch on the front and it'll need painting.

@reeves_luke89, if the nosecone you have is ducted and for a 'kit' and RoboS isn't interested, could you PM me, cheers!

I took my existing nose cone to them this Friday, and one of the guys from "Technical" came down
