Picture of Water Pipe installed?

[PaulEZ]

I'm in the process of switching from a 1987 radiator set-up to a late model set-up. I recently purchased the metal water pipe that runs across the front of the engine, and was wondering if anyone had a picture of it mounted? I'm not sure if I have the correct mounting points...

Cool! Do you know if the mounting points differ from 87' to 90'? I can't see exactly where it mounts up to...

BTW nice job on the build!

I can't tell you that one. I didn't think the earlier coolant systems had the metal pipe at all. :-\ Anyone know?

Thank you! it's no where near that clean now - but I'm gonna give it a nice cleaning and do some gaskets next month! woohoo!

I can verify my 87' didn't come with the water pipe set-up, however I was hoping that the mounting accomidations may be there. Guess I'll have to check tonight...

Tks

I think it screws onto the water pump on one side, and the block on the other - mounting holes should all be there.

Had a chance to check...my 87' doesnt have the mounting holes, however I was able to make it work
