Rock Guards / Radiator and Oil cooler for SPF
I have been looking at the galleries to see how the different rock guards look. also called several Superformance dealers, only to find out they are $250+ for the radiator and $110+ for the oil cooler rock guards.
If you have them, Were did you get them, how much, and how are they mounted? |
Got mine from the dealer at time of purchase (June 2005). $225 and $110, which included installation. Radiator screen is secured by 4 screws at tabs at the corners. Oil cooler screen mounting is a mystery. It sets loosely between the cooler and the fiberglass, and in fact can slide from side to side. I haven't examined it closely, but I suspect the cooler has to be removed to install it. Good luck!

My radiator rock guard cost me bout 40 dollars. I measured it and went to a glass shop and they made it out of screen door stuff with some bracing. It was working up until the day my friend put the radiator in the back of a truck.

Rock Guard
I bought my SPF used and it has a window screen with about a 1/2" frame covering the radiator. It's attached with vercro and works great. I'm sure you could go to a hardware store and have one made. I don't know about the oil cooler but you can't even see the one on the radiator and it's easy to clean.

Try Olthoff Racing. I suspect theirs are what the dealers sell, and they're a bit cheaper direct. Excellent quality and yes, the oil cooler guard is a bit tricky to install; requires drilling 4 small holes to line up with spring-loaded tabs that insert onto the holes.

Radiator screens
You can get some 1/4" Stainless screen at either McMaster Carr or Graingers and use some fabrication skills and get the job done for around $50
