I just realized that looks like the same blue rattle can paint i used a few years ago on my manifolds....it doesn't last long just to warn ya!



Interested setup in general. Any reason why you went w/ that radiator? It's obviously a universal unit, etc due to the in/out locations....??



What sort of power are you looking for..?

im guessing cause it was cheaper. it looks a little ummm ghetto. but hopefully you can get some good numbers.







just a few things. that rad hose is gonna wear itself out quickly because as you can see in the pics without any flow it collapses, with flow it probably rounds out, then shrinks back to how it looks in the pics. thats going to wear out the hose pretty quickly. Also the connector pipe between rad hoses, hopefully you did a beaded lip, otherwise your car will shoot that pipe out or slice the hose where the hose clamps are, worm screw hose clamps like that are bad for coolant systems, that chew threw hoses when pressure is applied.







still tho looks like itll work, and hope you make some good power. did ya get to use the "nasa spec clean room" lol.

Regardless of the numbers the car is fast enough. It lays patches through 3rd gear...
