Bulging bonnet

Bulging bonnet.

 

When I install the supercharger, I will be fitting a charge cooler on top of the engine.

 

Before I modify a bonnet from scratch, thought to ask if anyone already had one.

 

Have a U.K. spec bonnet to trade, or not.

 

Also interested to see pics of any bonnets with a big bulge.

 

Thank's.

Barney,

 

Cheers for that, have found a pic of one in the calendar snaps.

 

Who's car is this, I would like a look at his garage snaps?

 

Is this cut and shut only, or available as a complete bonnet?

Like I said Barney, just fishing at the mo.

 

Here's my 'hit list', pics of the parts are posted in the S.C. section of 'my garage' as they turn up.

 

Jaguar XKR Eaton M112 - found

Jaguar X300 charge cooler pre rad - found.

N/A engine - found.

N/A A340E trans - found.

T.T. A343E trans - found.

T.T. flex plate - found.

U.K. spec fuel pump - found.

 

T.T. flex plate bolts - searching.

T.T. auto bell housing - searching.

T.T. torque converter - searching.

High impedance top feed 550cc injectors - searching.

Oil catch tank - searching.

Water swirl pot - searching.

Electric water pump - searching.

Charge cooler core - searching.

Bonnet with a big bulge in it! - searching

 

Looking into alloy cores to build a charge cooler that may even fit under a stock bonnet if I mod the rocker covers.

 

Also looking into leaving injectors stock, and fitting extra's before the S.C. which would help cool the charge.

 

It's early days yet.
