As much as I despise someone selling a filter for that amount, if I needed one, I would grab it. $90 for a year of trouble free service.

I admit I paid $70 each for two of the most recent additions to my collection. What I plan to do is add them all up and divide by the number I have, and offer some to people in need here on this forum. People I know, people who are not going to flip it, but instead use it.

Finally scored a couple 6 packs! I sure miss living in a country where you can just buy stuff with no fear of any widespread supply chain problems.

I'm not selling any, they are just for customer cars and builds. We go thru a decent amount. I usually keep 24-30 in stock before availability became a issue. While it is tempting to sell them for $90-$100 a piece, I don't want to be that guy. Then I would feel like the ass hats that were panic buying pallets of toilet paper or hand sanitizer. Or the dealers that charge insane ADMs on cars.

WOOHOO, I just got an "Availability Alert Notification" from RockAuto.
Sorry to tell you that this part is still out of stock.....

Trickling in a little. Fatfab needs them for their business!
I hope those who need them don‘t buy a ten year supply.
I use one a year and am due in June. I won’t buy more than one.

I was able to buy two from a dealer for $39 each including shipping.

Now if the Ford dealer in Monterey would get the necessary parts to fix my car (busted transmission cooler lines, 20 days out of commission and counting) I could be back in business...

Damn, what happened?

Laguna Seca has a lot of elevation changes. I probably bottomed out coming out of the Corkscrew at speed. Alternative theory is I'm just too damn fast for the Tremec.

Obviously you don’t know about the CorkScrew suspension setting.

What are you waiting on? I may have it as we remove the long run of metal trans cooler tubes when doing our twin turbo builds

Do you need one, and if so, Would you like one?

Im good for now. Lots of snow and no place to go. I change mine after every track day

I truly appreciate the offer!

I Googled and couldn't find anything. Other than putting the car on Track mode with stiff suspension setting, what am I doing wrong?

Yeah, it's probably those lines. I just spoke to the dealer and they said the replacement parts were shipped from Detroit yesterday - 19 days after I dropped off the car. Frustrating but if it's true the end is in sight. Thank you so much for the offer.
