Re: PW Tornado Build pics

Been very busy at work the last few months but did get a few bits on the car added or uprated. First was the gearbox oil cooler mounted in a kind of saxophone ! Scoops air up from under the car and forces it through the cooler. I used a diesel fuel filter off the UN1 drain hole and then pump through the cooler back ontop of 5th gear at the rear. The pump is mounted on the round angled chassis tube with some mounts I welded inplace for it. The engine bay is filthy at the moment as I have had overheating problems and the system keeps puking onto the road and spraying everything in sight ! Turned out to be a blown head gasket and also a problem that rerouting my coolant hoses had introduced - all now sorted so I'll clean her up a bit.
