How many people have this kit on and running?

Has anyone else toasted a motor?



On a side note is that an oil cooled chra only?How do the lines connect to the motor? Do they make you drill and tap?



Goodluck straightening this out.

It's just oil cooled, and the oil feed line just taps into the stock drain plug hole......could be abetter set-up, but it works ok.

The feed comes from the oil pressure switch and returns in the oil pan via the drain plug.
