do guys who run billet cases need to use a scattershield? ive seen a few people who dont run them...

 

yes you technically do since the billet case is not sfi spec...although most our scatter shields are not as well. but it all depends on the track i think. we never ran one and they never said anything to us at three local tracks here.

 

i dont think the scatter sheilds have to meet an sfi spec, like the bell housings. they give a location, fastener, and metal thickness guidelines in the rule book iirc.

 

I have the diest blanket and its got SFI specs stamped into it.

 

deist is the only sfi scatter shield available for the b-series/d-series. scatter shields and aftermarket bellhousings for rwd trans must be sfi spec...not that it matters to us.

i talked to craig at liberty about getting the bellhousing sfi approved and he said there isnt enough of a market to go through the whole process

 

the deist blanket is technically only certed for auto trans.

 

we run our billet case with a scatter shield for our own safety & its a nice mounting bracket for our exhaust back pressure sensors.

 

there is no SFI requirement for a scatter shield, just has to meet minimum specifications, its in the book yo.

 

IMO scattered are dumb. They "should" protect the driver and they dont. With our cars it would have to go threw the diff. area and of coarse they dont cover that area......

 

I wish someone would make a scatter shield that fit around a stock slave cylinder with a stainless braided clutch line.

 

i use a golden eagle scatter sheild. it fits fine over the stock slave with braided line.

 

It doesn't fit over mine, I have it adjusted all the way forward for the most room. I am running an Earl's 10mm to -3an fitting in the slave cylinder. What are you using for hardware?

 

ill take a picture for you when i make it over to the shop. im using a 45 degree fitting (-3an) there is even a .250 spacer on the backside of the slave cyl cause it hits the billet case without it.

 

Mine fits fine as well. with the -3 stainless line

 

I picked up a Golden Eagle shield too, however my car is not yet together.

 

the fitment of the ge shield sux mazworx\ipg shields fit 100 times better

 

Tilton T/O bearing

 

Werd! I don't have any problems with my Maxworx shield. I had both the OEM slave and a braided cable and now I have a tilton setup.

 

^^^

you dont even have a car. get back in your corner.....


here are the pictures

 

Oh okay, you guys are using the 1/8' NPT fittings over the 10mm. Unfortunately they don't make the 10mm in a 45, I wound up spending another $15 on a -3 to -3 swivel 90 to make this work.
