Thanks guys..
Nearly completed the Intake pipe. Just stepped it from 3 to 4”. Mounted the Race Valve and the Intake Air Temp sensor and bung.
I still find it challenging welding thin contaminated aluminium pipe, but it came out ok. Might paint it stipple black.
I priced up 4 an fittings for the trans cooler I had here in NZ. It worked out cheaper to buy a new 16 row radiator, 20ft of pipe and 10 x AN8 fittings thru Amazon including freight. No wonder I import so much. we just get rogered here.
Moved the water pump return to the top boss and welded up the front facing inlet…. for better routing of water pipes.
Nearly ready to put the motor back in the car.
Question. I can see the best way to mount the trans radiator is with the 180 deg fittings from the top so it bleeds out the air, but is it ok to feed and pull the oil from the bottom of the radiator. Will it get an air block?? I have space constraints.
