Krimi Posted February 13, 2023 Author Share Posted February 13, 2023 Thanks guys, now working in pressure test for hardlines and this week hopefully the cold and hot side new FMIC pipes should be welded for quick clamps everywhere. And ready to be sent to powdercoat in black May should be the date to start with the project with the car right after MOT. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
