Re: Problem with coolant hose

Hi Chuck, Gregg, Bill

Here's a couple more pics of the same install. It's easier to see the angle of the firewall (30degees) and the low engine position. The bulkhead windows on virtually all GT40 replicas are in the same place so that's a better reference point to guestimate by.

On the intake manifold and thermostat, there is roon for the thermostat and it's a Weber manifold so the area around the thermostat housing isn't quite the same.

The picture of the engine side of the firewall panel shows the relief for the A/C clutch and lower water pump pulley. The top half of the water pump bump could have been taken out completely but wed already had enough fun with fiberglass.

Bill, looks like an electronic distributor, what is it? I tried the MSD Electronic unit but it was WAY TOO HIGH so we went with the standard part and a 6AL

Cheers
