Thinking for next year...

Oil Cooler Upgrade

Is that just the looped hard line?

Yeah, #4.



I'm also looking for a better solution for gauges. I bent my spade connectors 90 degrees and it fits better, but it's not great.

I'll work on that, need good mic wired to rear, near muf

Never seen anyone use a power steering cooler, but I have heard its a problem. I plan to add an oil cooler down the road so I am watching what you end up doing

Decided to do this:



Also added studs, I have new Style 5 wheels coming, so I'll have normal tires on car normally.

Cool, thanks, have decided to move gauges to radio area, and just use blue tooth direct to amps.

Thanks though

If you haven't figured out your after market gauge problem these will help.

You can buy a female electrical connector spade that's bent at 90 degrees.

what if I delete the clutch fan, or do you think I should keep.
if I am taking apart this area... to install euro oil can, for the oil cooler, thinking electric fan? or do I keep the clutch and just do the smaller aux fans on the front and be done.

so I am going to order (2) spal 8-9" fans and try that.
at least going into the project.
do you think I ought to dump the clutch fan or leave it.
I drive on street and track

If you can keep the clutch fan, absolutely do it. Mount those smaller fans as pushers
