stock temp gauge is worthless the sending units at the highest point in the system so if you loose coolant it is exposed to air and thinks everything is fine.....and your engine goes patoey

sigh fried mine that way..

looks like a pretty bad *** vert though keep up the good work!!

Well had today to get my daily driver back in business...

no tire smoke (in the neighborhood and need to conserve, DD)need to take it easy to waste off the rest of that damn 87oct

Ah, now with that out of the way, I can devote my free time back on the vert (or lack there of)

Got some other bits in earlier this week.

Power steering reservoir and the coolant expansion tank I'll be working on that will be in conjunction with our intake manifold we are developing for the RB engines... all in which will be using stainless lines and AN fittings.

it is cheaper and better than a koyo or mishimoto while also giving enough clearance for me to finally use my Dual F-A-L electric fans with my RB and keep my AC?

i dunno, just a wild guess.

yeah, i saw the notch, but what is the thickness of the radiator?

like i said, I am trying to find a setup that will let me fit my F-A-L dual fans, otherwise I'm just gonna sell them. they take up a bit of room in my trunk.
