Howard, I agree with everything you say, except possibly about the turbulence. It is my understanding that fluid cooling systems work better with turbulence as it helps extract heat from the channel wall.

Randy, agree totally. How did you do your full flow bypass? Howard, thanks. I appreciate the detail.

Good info, thanks guys. Howard, has removing the thermostat materially affected how long it takes your engine to get up to operating temperature? I have also ducted the radiator to help with the airflow.

Anybody have an extra you want to get rid of? Thanks, John

I'm considering adding a supplementary electric water pump at the radiator to improve flow. At this point I intend to leave the mechanical pump on the engine (LS3) and wire the electric pump to come on when the fans come on at 180. Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome. I have the upgraded...

Fairly well documented build on this site, so the quality is there for anyone to see. Seems like he got that car for about half price.

Well done. I had not seen that. Congrats to Will and Bill, nice job guys.

nice. Any pictures of the end that is bolted to the upright?

Alan, I'd see if there is someone local to you that has a GT40 that you are wife can sit in. What is reasonable and practical for you may not necessarily be the same for her. If you know what I mean. :)

Fantastic!! Really well done!

Welcome Barry! Lot's of good info here from previous builders. That's what got me hooked. :)

Chuck, please post it here. Really enjoyed your GT40 build log and it helped me a lot when I was installing Webers. Looking forward to following your next build.

I saw Paul's car at the track Monday and looked at the area his failed. The bushing did not wallow out. The frame rail the bushing is welded into is where the failure was.
