if its a full car loom your probably looking at a good £1500 at a guess. My cosworth engine bay loom will be coming from him and thats £400 alone.

So Ryan going to build a loom for nil labour .

Their are £80/£100 parts in a Cossie engine Loom & it takes 10/14 hours to build I guess. So thats circa £25 an hour labour, sounds reasonable to me with his overheads etc.

The person I use charges around the same, if not a little cheaper, I think that's a good price considering the work involved, very labour intensive they are, don't know about ryans but a lot I would imagine would be warranted for life as well, ryan does good stuff from what I've seen of his be happy with one myself no bother.

i personally cant wait to get my loom, they look amazing and i certainly wont be going hidden wiring loom with his loom, rest of the car loom can piss off into the inner wings though.

From what I've seen Ryans looms are pretty much spot on and can be tailored to engine spec! When I have some spare cash I will get one aswell

plus ryan uses milspec wiring which will last much longer than standard thinwall automotive cable.

the problem for someone not in the trade making thier own loom is getting hold of the high grade wires in the quantity you would use for a single loom as opposed to 100m reels for each colour which makes it prohibitatively expensive!!
