My Rad Relocation
Haven't been on in a while guys forgot my password lol.... anyways I had finished my engine and took it to the track and now messing around again and here is what I have been working on with the rad!
Old setup was HHR setup
I have all aluminum pump gas engine and car didn't over heat on the street with the HHR setup but it had a temp creep I didnt like and went to to my new setup... old setup was 27.5" single pass rad with HHR and now to 31" double pass rad with twin 14" fans now. I like the rad wells in front of core away from the heat of the aluminum engine and more capacity! hope it all works as well as I like.
more room and k member has been modified since then also. I added the strap back I cut out for the HHR fan setup to fit.
rubber mounts to help with flex and also I have a bracket I made that ties across the bumper brackets for lower support if needed.
car will be getting repainted. :D and yes six pack hood fits with higher filler neck.
been going slow at it but mockup is all done now time to do some detailing. I also added 1/8" metal wide strip the width of the upper core the whole way across for strength! the whole setup is real solid!
