Ark Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Are you going to be able to dump enough heat, with those coolers smack in front of the radiator, and right behind the intercooler? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Are you going to be able to dump enough heat, with those coolers smack in front of the radiator, and right behind the intercooler? I guess it can be ducted, to force the air through, rather than around, that'll certainly help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polished Drive Belt tensioner with Unorthadox Racing Idler Wheel The Bay as it stands just now This is what Lee will be trying to sort out for me, to keep the theme going at the front of the Bay.

Paul Whiffin Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Are you going to be able to dump enough heat, with those coolers smack in front of the radiator, and right behind the intercooler? We've tried it with the oil cooler in that position, whilst being fine for road use its not so good on the track, not prolonged hard track use anyway. Depends what your using the car for. Strangely it works ok on other cars though, Skylines are fine with it there for instance. Have you got an oil temp gauge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah got an oil temp gauge paul, when i had it on the track at knock hill the temps were the same, only time it went up was when it was sat still after. Yeah the front now looks totally different, the polished parts coupled with your Cam pulleys just works a treat, im glad i went for the silver ones now. Looks great G, saw it the other night and its going to be a gem once finished. That 4" fmic is the b0llox eh?!! See dont tell me these things bud, im so far away from it i ant see it up close, your only making me jealous when you say you seen it the other night, hahahahaha. Yeah im glad i got the 4'' FMIC, prob due to going for more power after a while. may aswell have everthing in place now, just a matter of changing manifolds and turbo's. Can't wait tO show Lee's work off at some shows this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
