Re: Technify / Continental Intercooler Part Needed

After sending Wiggins a photo of their part number (stamped* right on the coupling), they wrote back today saying they are unable to locate the part number or cross reference it.

Re: Technify / Continental Intercooler Part Needed

It’s a work in progress David. Like so many companies during this crisis, it’s very difficult to receive a call back. With some luck, there might be some news to report next week.
