Default C4 Spindel Ducts

Does anyone here have experience with the spindel ducts offered by Quantum Motorsports?
It looks like a good idea by I am not sure they will work with the 12" wide CCW's that I am running.
Got pics????

I have them on 1990 Z51. They took a fair amount of modification which is why they are unreturnable. You get a note in the box after you have opened them that they aren't even covered for damage in shipping. Having said that the seem to work. They may fit better out of the box if you have the smaller non Z51 brakes. I don't have pictures. I used the Mid America air dam with 2" brake ducts and ran those back. The air dam looks good and seems to work well, having said that you would be better served with 3" ducts and hose. However on my Z51 after the mods to the brake duct 2" line was work to route.

Now that it's in works and looks nice. Have had issues keeping the hose in place when I eat a cone.

Try Mike Kryger, ZR1 MK on the forum. He makes a really nice brake spindle duct.

Mike can respond about what he is doing now, but a while back he was making limited quantities for sale.

The basic tube is so easy to make. Spend the money on track events and make them.
